3.0s can be made fast with a lot of upgrades, motor internals/bolt-ons, exhaust, and transmission upgrades, but really, the CL is not meant to be a race car. It is way too heavy to be a performer. But you can make it quick enough to be both fun and useful in traffic.
But really, the CL is a
ride, not a Civic coupe... so if you really want fast, gut and build up a civic or buy a muscle car. If you want a nice luxary touring coupe, bolt on some extras and enjoy your CL.

yeah, especially since my motor mount was broken.
clman02 put his in the other day, noticed a difference also. but his motor mount was also broken lol
you really can feel it, its a lot stiffer your steeling wheel vibrates and everything shakes a little bit cuz the motor doesnt have much to dampen the vibrations anymore
