A better driver would have done me, but he said it wasn't bad for an old car. I say 130 because my speedo said 140. Got to compensate for the old clocks, eh.

Edited to say that the Golf owner works with me and has had a couple of blasts with/past me. Golf sounds good I must admit. Bet it wasn't as twitchy either.
my original engine which had a decat, power flow exhaust drilled airbox,and the egr removed from the manifold (which made the biggest difference).did a standing start with a civic ep3 which had a spoon exhaust and manifold(sounded amazing :O and was side by side till 90 mph,then he started creeping in front .rs2000's are not slow by anymeans if these mods r done.it was a fRS engine in it
