This was all the talk when I was in high school. My Honda civic with fart can tinny exhaust plus turbo plus this plus that is better than your car because it makes xxx hp.

OP lets see pics of your EG/EK hatch with a B18 or K20 swap from back in the day. You're the embarrassing guy at the car meets doing street races. I guarantee it.
tell me you don't live your life 1/4 mile at a time without telling me you don't live your life 1/4 mile at a time.

Maybe Paul Walker should have stuck to JDM....just saying

You just haven't seen the Kie builds on these car either. Like I have to repeat, most of the purist or even the one that just bought it are scare of losing their CPO or warranty. Once they sell it, it is where the true owner comes out and play.

Didn't say it would hit low 9, just 0-60. A pure 800 992 can hit 10.2 second which is plenty fast anyway. A Tune Turbo S hit 9.2. If the Carrera had the extra displacement, I believe it
