does one of u have a 4dr or 2dr... cause 4dr is a whole hell of a lot heavier,
your mods may actually be killing your pedal response time, so you know

 

He's got the Sedan, I've got the losing Coupe.

 

my conclusion God hates you :goodjob:

 

It has to be true! Or maybe it is just the weight.

 

maybe its ur rims... is he on stock rims?

 

At first, I thought he was talking about those new things that are suppose to sound like turbos. I was so gonna bust on him. I personally think those throttle bodies are a waste. I would take it to a bore shop, and have it bored out to where the swirls end. This will give you a bigger throttle body. You can bore it yourself if you are patient and handy. Second, I would say that no, it is not in backwards. Anything that makes a turbo sound to me, would be telling me that a restriction is taking place to make that noise. I doubt it can be put on backwards, but I could be wrong on that. Last, All of those things you have put on, focus on top end, so down low I can understand it, but on top, you should be pulling on him. Check the engine numbers, maybe it has a swap done before he bought it or something. One last thing before I go. It is possible with headers and CAI that you are running way lean, and your car is running flat. I would take it to a dyno if you have the money, and see what the A/F ratio is. My 93 with just a CAI is only at 12:1 ratio. I am gonna get a adjustable FPR soon. Good luck

 

also if your running with all your electronics on it'll make ur car slower too

 

The few ponies that the 5th gen 4banger is lacking vs your 6th gen 4 banger (I'm assuming) can easily overcome the added weight of your car, system, and a really big factor that people overlook; your rims.

 

wait, those civics weigh that much? last time i checked a hatchback 92-95 weighed in around 2500

 

ok i have a 96 ex 4dr at and i can woop on single slammer civic's all day long all i have in I/H/E VAFC plugs and wires with 18's and i can walk on a civic on a SOHC civic ex all the time one of my friends has one and i beat him all the time, so if i were you dood i would jsut take out the TBS and just try it with out
