TypeR - It is pretty tough to believe a 30whp gain from a header on a 4 cylinder. You got a dyno sheet to back that up or is that a manufacturer's claim?

Those are some good HP gains for such modest mods.
Yes it is possible to beat a 99+GT to 70 or beyond. You wouldnt beat me, but a lesser driver sure I can believe it. Your buddy claims to have reeled in a 97 cobra on the top end. Now that is BS. You are not the typical ricer you have both mods and proof of HP, So you have my respect. I realy dont see any way your acura's with equal drivers would take any v8 stang off the line. Your cars make good HP but lack Torque. Is there anyone in your stang killing acura club that lives anywhere near me. I would like to see for myself. Go back to your site and set it up surely someone is from west texas on there. I dont care what N/A mods they have either. Just for bragging rights.

That's very impressive, typeR. I guess I assumed that like most smaller dislacement (relative to a V8) motors with a lot of horsepower, the CL was fairly well optimized from the factory and wouldn't gain much from simple mods like a header (my friend's Integra Type R for example). Nice to see a dyno sheet when you want proof!

That it is. What if he drives 4 hrs and you drive 3, you meet up and you stomp him? Guess it's really not worth the trip now that I think about it.

i wonder what would happen if the 4.6's SOHC or DOHC had the VVT in it? now that would be something. as for the CL, it has this technology. i cant see an auto CL beating a 97 Cobra, but it is not hard for me to see them to keep up. i know from personal experience how fast a CL S is. for an import, they have my respect. those things can wind up too

Verts
Inferno, I'm pretty sure the NHRA won't let you go below 14.0 in a vert without a cage or roll bar. The rule doesn't apply to me, so I don't pay much attention. I do have to wear a helmet though, LOL. (worn out motorcycle helmet).
