Thats exactly it. The 3.0 is meant for relaxed cruising with less noise and vibration.

The 4 cylinders are geared for some quick "around town" but definitely lose their edge around 50 mph.

I know because the first car I "had" (I shared with my mother at the time) was an Accord wagon EX with the F22 VTEC and a 5 speed manual. With a higher final drive ratio, it could REALLY scoot up to 50 mph. In fact, I could stand a good chance of cutting off people around town who supposedly had faster cars.

The penalty of course, is poorer fuel economy.

 

Sshhhh....there going to get me for child abuse.

 

lose their edge at 50? in vtec. HA.. all owners of 3.0's are child abusers.. thats it next spring im getting a 2G and thats final

no im 6'1" and bout 240 lbs. i only use the bike to ride on sat nights. but the guy i bought it from did he's only 5'9" maybee 170lbs. he ran a 12.6. at bradenton speed way a few months ago during the nopi nationals. upgrades at the time was header, exhaust, new wet upgrade clutch plates, .10 over wiseco pistons and 5 angle valve job.

 

not to start this again but I don't think that's TOO imposible

 

type in 600 1/4 mile times.. see what you get.. lmao

that would be a 1300 is it another one maybee?

 

nope scroll down till you see the 97 zx-6 or maybe the or the gixxer 600 or the 00 r6..... and all those are posted according to time slip

 

there's a gsx-r 600 with a 10.5 on there

miss shift- it happens everyone is human
wrong gear- impossible

 

I raced my friends that has an IS with an Injen intake,
while my 3.0 is stock. We both had 5 heads in the car
and we were going about 40 when we both punched it.
I pulled on him so hard that I left him behind by like 4
maybe even 5 cars and shut it down at 100mph.
My boys that were in his car and even
he the driver were surprised as was I. Must of been the torque.
I've never raced him off the line but I've gone in his car countless times and when he floors it his car doesn't feel
fast for even with an intake.
My car stock feels a lot more powerful when I floor it.
IS have 215hp stock plus his intake 2 or 3hp.
Oh well, victory for CL's.

 

In my 2.2 I haven't had any problems with Accords..I had an Accord and I feel the CL is putting out more. On paper it should be the same but it feels completely different. As far as hanging with a 3.0 eventually the 3.0 has to pull on a 2.2. My whip is bone stock and felt good till I dropped the chromies on it, I need to add a I/H/E to get what little power it does have back.

 

^ Oye Platano! Dimelo?
Keep them chromies shining.
Ya tu sabes!
