alright this guy i know just picked up a 1989 Honda Civic Si hatch and hes talking sh!t and saying "its all about Hondas, Chevy/Pontiac suck" and he has NOTHING done to the car and all hes planning to do are appearance mods...so im just wonder how much HP and torque this thing has (im thinking it something like 108/100 or something but im not sure) and an estimate of what this thing run in the 1/4 mile. Thanks.

Its people like this that give imports a bad name.

He probly will be running a highto mid 16 in the 1/4. Nothing fancy unless he puts some money into it. Firebirds are nice as well as stangs but hondas are far lighter. Just keep in mind that a 200 H.P. honda engine in a EF body will be pretty quick, vs 200 H.P. in a stang or camaro will be 16 sec car.
