what did you expect? a 190hp motor in a ~2,900-3,000 car isn't going to be the fastest thing on the road. you should be just as fast or faster than ludes and gsrs. if you want a fast honda you need a civic to drop that motor in. i agree before vtec is does feel a little laggin, but that's why you buy a apexi vafc and lower the crossover to 4,800 which should help.
