It's not a dragster...take it through some corners and then report back. And remember, it doesn't really move till you are in VTEC.

I only read the title and automatically thought driving and drugs dont mix...for what it is the S is "peppy",however you do need mods and you wont be satisfied with the power you gain EVER, youre always gonna want more

"I only want 300whp NA(months later) Im thinking about boost(year later) I'm boosted @350whp what do I need to make 400(years later) How can I get 700whp???"
Lately, Ive realized our car isnt much without mods, Im just glad I got mine for looks
