Civic EG

I was at a gas station here in Jersey
Just got a coffee
came out to my car to see anther eg parked next to mine

I decided to wait for the guy because he had a few things done to it
Ls meshies, gutted inside, exhaust, steering wheel

Well the guy came out I told him nice car
He asked what I had done to it and I told him
JDM D15b Vtec swap, With intake header an exhaust
Nothing too fancy

He still has his D15b7
He responded saying,
"Why would you do that? My D15b7 has more power then your JDM 1.5 Vtec"

I was like, Ummm...what?

He said " Yeah the JDM 1.5 had 40 less horsepower then the D15b7"
"If your trying to go somewhere get a GSR swap"

Then he took off.

He might have been correct up until he said

Maybe he was thinking of the CX engine?

fixed.

I dont know what he was thinking about
My ole D15b7 could barley get me up hills
My D15b is a monster compared to the b7

Its nothin super crazy but Id rather have Vtec then a damn D15b7

there are some true dumbasses in the honda world hahaha

i would have just laughed at him and said "ok ricer"

so you met a honda-tech know-it-all.

Haha those people are funny.
I hate it when they have a front mount using it as an intake
Ricers

is that legally do-able to have front mounts as intake?

Now that's funny! Fkn Dumbass!!!! ! I would have been like " Lets Do this, maaaaannnnnnn". hahaha!!!

His b7 might have more power depending on how many stickers he had. Or a maybe a turbo? Most likely he was misinformed but still benefit of the doubt.

I did question if he was misinformed, Not to him but I thought about it
He didnt hesitate to think if he was wrong, He just quickly responded saying
"Why would you do that? My D15b7 has more power then your JDM 1.5 Vtec" ect...

He didn't seem like he wanted to stick around and talk about Hondas
no he wasn't boosted and he had a rotted exhaust (it sounded like he had no exhaust)
and no stickers

Fixt

I'm sure I, as well as many others, could go on about that site but I'll regress and only say it's one site I'll never join.
I have found good information there while searching the web but I will not participate in the ego fest called honda-tech.

sorry to get off topic a bit.

I got a D15B7, I wish it had more power than your D15B!
