8v vs 16v eh! RE: 16v body kit questions

I'm not arguing 8V v. 16V I'm arguing stock v. modified... Chesefrog or 
whoever that is did a great job running a viper but he didn't exactly have 
stock civic. Based on this heavily modified civic it would not be fair to 
say that 'civic's can keep up with vipers'... that's my point.

Depends on how modded the 8v was...that we don't know. I mean, depending
on the mods, it *might* have been only making similar HP numbers to a
stock 16v. <br>
