2 examples why...
I was merging unto the freeway about three days ago in 4th gear going about 50 MPH, there was a Semi already on the freeway in the farthest right slowest lane. Not wanting to be stuck behind him, I stepped on it still in 4th gear, I swear the sensation of speed as I merged in front of the semi was breath taking. I was shoved back in my seat and by the time I looked down I was going about 95 MPH without even realizing it. Very underrated.
2nd reason..
I was cruising on the freeway and a GTI pulled up next to me, looked like a 2015-2017 model year GTI. I knew what was about to happen so I gunned it about the same time he did, we were pretty much neck and neck from 60-85MPH, this is a car that makes 220 hp and 258 lb ft of torque how was that possible?
I know dynos have shown that all the Civic engines are underrated by Honda, for what reason? I dont know. But it is true, the Si engine is a little monster.
