So I've had my Si a week today and I was wanting to get everyones opinions on what you think about the car bone stock. Is it good enough? Does it have enough power? Are you impressed? Any and all feedback welcomed.
Just a little bummed out as of right now and I know the car is stock but I just figured it would have a little more GO to it. The dealership filled the car up with 87 octane before I picked it up even though I told them make sure they used premium as that's what it is supposed to take but of course they didn't listen. So my car feels VERY sluggish and powerless before the turbo starts to spool. Once in boost it's OK but not a big jump in power. Thinking the 87 octane has something to do with the lack of umph. And my car only has 300 miles on it so I'm not beating on it but I have done 2-3 2nd gear pulls to see what the power is like, and not to redline, just to see the boost top out and what the pull is like.
Traded in my 2014 Supercharged Si that was at 320whp for this because it's more practical and a MUCH better car, but at this much loss of power its making me regret it. I know I can mod my 2018 BUT I really don't wanna do a clutch upgrade right off the bat. That being said, maybe I should have just bit the bullet on the price and payment of the 2018 Accord Sport 2.0T because this has me wanting so much more.
Let me know what you guys think. All opinions welcome
