please use the search feature and read and read and read what everyone else has already covered. It's simple, you won't beat them without cheap mods. just be happy you have a nice car to drive.
I got friends with 300+ HP RSX-S turbo and they respect me for having one of the cleanest looking cars around. -------------------- ![]() *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |
