I was watching horsepower T.V today and saw the strangest show ever. First they had in the shop and were talking about/showing dyno video of a 780(?) cubic inch G.M. motor making 880 hp and 1000 lb ft. N/A. It was pretty sweet, and then they said how you could punch it out to 1000 Ci!!!! That is huge!
So i was happy, but then they went to the total extreme, and i meen TOTAL! They showed us the shops new project, a honda civic, looks like a DX. They dyno'd it and spun out a WHOPPING 87 fwhp! Then after, and i shoot you not, $1000.00's invested they turned out an earth shaking 97 fwhp!! And the sad part is that the ricer doing the work was soooo impressed that he took it out and did a blistering peg legged attempted burn out for the camera. I was laughing so hard i could have died. For $400.00 bucks he could have added a 75 shot and had enough left over to buy a cheap gun and put him self out of the misery that is trying to tune a crap box like that and make it be a cool thing to do! Such a sad little man. Later
