honda never needed a boosted powerplant..

only one ever and its in the rdx. The only reason why it has a turbo is to help with torque something we all know hondas dont have..

and a 572 is built from factory w/ 600Hp. Its completly built..not production buddy..

 

all in all though, at the end of the day the dsm,evo whatever you wanna call em are going to be faster then hondas..

iron blocks
boost
AWD
in that order

They are great cars but like people say, you can throw 10G's into anything and make it haul ass.

just my .02 cents

 

My favorite excuse #1 was hoping to hear this one.

 

whats an excuse?..... are cars only judged on straight line performance now?? don't call it an excuse just because your "fast" cars handle like log trucks.

if the all mighty DSM is such a speed machine why don't you guys take them out to auto cross or a road course..... afraid you might get shown up by a 250 hp honda??

 

Yes, Im am terrified. because obviously, we skip on suspension....none of us use coil overs, seriously though, im realllllllly scared. idiot.

 

and now your doing exactly what you were shit-talking the guys over..... making no supporting argument for your case, only calling silly names.

and if you think just tossing on a set of coilovers has anything to do with setting up a race worthy suspension geometry then you sir are an idiot.

so..... your cars faster cause you have 3 times as much horespower?
lets test that theory..... which car would win?



-or-





how about if the race is here?


straight line speed does not mean your car is faster..... see my point?

 

What "honda owners" need to realize about dsm's is that there not for the average builder. They are complicated and they wil piss you off more than anything. The dsm's you see broken are the ones that someone that did not know anything about them and try to crank up the boost on a bonestock car. I love 1st gen dsm's and when I tried to build a dsm I just didn't know what i was doing. Most of the people on here that own Hondas don't know much about a honda. I'm not a professional but have learned as much as I can about cars from friends. Quit arguing to the dsm owners because there car are crazy fast. They know more than you and I and quit making honda owners look dumb... PLEASE Oh and you can make a DSM handle. You can make them light just like a honda.

 

Well not that light lol.

 

You're obviously taking it to the extreme's with the two pictures above. Your point is null and void.

 

first- the DSM boys came in here and started this shit.

second- DSM aren't any harder to work on than any other stock turbocharged vehicle

third- you aparently missed the whole point of my comments as your still saying their cars are "crazy fast". are they faster than a VW Rabbit around an auto cross course?

fourth- you have no idea how much i know about Hondas or cars in general.... so how could you say they know more than me?

fifth- "quit making honda owners look dumb." shit.... you make honda owners look dumb with your failure to use the edit button and your double posting. the shit is pretty simple.
