<< If that's all I'm realistically putting out, I have to say I'm embarassed. I've spent all that money and time and I'm just about the same as a f%^&*^# Si? 1.6L? What gives? Dude, a Civic SI motor produces no low end torque whatsoever. Your Jetta is about the same weight as the Civic SI, but has "less hp". At the drag strip, though, your Jetta will shit on the Civic because you have a better power spread. There isn't much more to do to it other than 268's, 50mm intake and a better (hannaford) Head. Where will that put me? I want about 200-215hp, without turbo/nitrous. If Honda can do it,and with less diplacement, then why cant we? >> - Simple: Variable Valve timing. Adds approximately 20% more power to an engine.
