Fair enough, I am most disappointed in low rpm’s. I know civics are like this I had a 90 CRX and a 90 Civic for the last 16 years. They seamed to have more power on the low end and I could feel a little bit of a pull when I raced it. My 06 just doesn't seem to pull at all...maybe because the car is so much bigger I just don't feel it. Also I've only had the car for just over a month and haven’t opened it up very much. Plus my older civics had exhaust mods but that only gives a few more horsepower and the low end torque should be a little worse but it was better than my 06.
