3SGTE tuned up VS. Civic Single Cam Turboed, i know we talked about these situation b4, but i just gotta confirm wi Options

[chacha]

my friend was braggin' how great his car is and that his tuner was able to push 450 WHP on his 1995 Honda Civic, ported his engine from top to bottom and has a T3 turbo on it...piston and crank as well as all the comparments in the engine was literally changed for performance...i told him about the 3SGTE for our cars and he laughed...never heard of the GT4, but laugh and said his car will run 0-60 in 3 or 4 sec high, i forget...but he will beat the SH*T out of our cars (tuned 3SGTE engines) can this be true? a 450WHP civic single cam beating a dual cam 3SGTE?

(in reference to an AVC-R) completely program it for traction by gear and RPM...... My car can be launched in first gear with almost ZERO wheelspin with the gas pedal on the floor, when I hit second the tires chirp and immediately the car starts pulling all the way to third gear without wheelspin while the gas pedal is still mashed to the floor , when third is hit the tires barely chirp while the boost climbs progressively until full boost is hit shortly after hitting third gear ..... and this is with north of 500 whp

(this isn't someone i know)...but like i said with proper parts and the knowledge of how to tune..in this example boost controll via RPM and gear...traction is tuned

Thanks for proving my point. The car is DETUNED from those high horsepower numbers in lower gears to avoid traction problems.
