07 civic si vs ep3

this guy at school has a ep3 and always revs his car at me, but i dont really do anything. so one day in the parking lot he asked me to run with him at the track. i have i/h/e and some other mods. he has CAI/H/E pretty much the same mods. o yeah the bet was $150. he said if i beat him than he'll take me on turnbull canyon a mountain road.

You will be head to head until you hit 5,800rpm then is going to be like you inject a small shot of N2O.

Are you sure he just has the a3? If he has a swap and you dont know it, he may be trying to hustle you.

. Both of you should pop your hoods to make sure in comparison. Either hes a complete moron and doesnt know what his ep3 actually does, or he does have a swap or something else you dont know about so be careful. If all he has is bolt ons, you might aswell just tell him to give you the $150 straight up

he would need an engine swap (k20a2/k20a) or as others have said a turbo/supercharger setup.

EP3s are the suck, you'll kill him...badly.

And don't pull no Fast and Furious crap on mountains or anything. Tell him to go to hell if he tries that.
