So i dont normaly post... ever haha.... but i need your guys help on this one. I drive a standard 5s-fe celica with intake, cat-back, plugs wires, and stage 2 clutch. Now how might that stand against a fairly stock DOHC Vtec CRX? I dont have alot of experience against Vtec's so i must ask.. Im fairly sure my engine wont hold up that well of a fight but i would like to make sure... I bet im leaving alot of important information out of this but yeah... just some advice thats all. Thanks...

lol - you'll get spanked

But DO NOT FORGET - you'll still look better at the finishline- even in 2nd place.  You'll need a turbo at FWHP of 200 to keep up/beat a b16c3/5 swapped rex.  Things are incredibly light, have higher HP, and top end in no mans land.  Think about it.  A STOCK Honda Civic EX.  Its SOHC and has roughly 10 less HP.  That car and a Celica GT are about even.  Now add a DOHC and boost HP up 40, then drop 300lbs.... now you'll be reading the letters of a 15 year car through your front windshield.

I disagree with this, 200whp is alot, i think u can win with alot less than that. I mean I have ~240 at the crank and I literally stomped on him without downshifting or ne thing, so I think u can def. win with less than 200 at the wheels.

I agree with you. 200 WHP is alot. I said 200 Flywheel HP, but stated it as FWHP. I guess you could misunderstand that as Front-Wheel. Bad abbr.

Damn straight. It really comes down to the size of the stereo.
