The base Civic isn't going to compete with a V6 sedan. My last car was a 2014 V6 Accord and my Type R only seemed slightly faster 0-60 (though handling and everything else is way better). Plus 8 sp auto tranny is so easy to take off it's almost unfair.

What was so controversial about that? Lol
LOL Nothing really. I didn't find my post to be controversial either. Just along for the ride.

So I was driving along late night around 1am the road was clear when a Camry flew pass me full speed so I decided to catch up to him at red light and oh boy he pulls down his window and nod his head ....so as the green light came on I floor my car in L gear also was on map 3 of tsp tune i was able to keep up with him for about 4 seconds and then this Camry just run away and left me about 4 to 5 car lengths ahead of me I was shocked so is the Camry way faster than a 1.5 cvt turbo civic on tsp map 3 tune ? Dude I was like what da actual fuccc
He ran away like your run on sentence. Punctuation will help more than any tune. :stirthepot:

Get use to being beaten, you are in a Civic and playing childish antics with cars more powerful than you. You two could have settled it at the stop light by getting out of your cars and measuring each other.

This one looks like a 2019 and it says xse at the back


Wow I didn't know it had that much horsepower
There is already a part-thead about the XSE V6 - it is faster than the Civic Si by about 0.5 seconds. The 2.5L 4 banger XSE is a turd, though. Know what you're racing before you get beaten.

Put your cvt in L on a tsp race tune map 3 and floor it from a stop you'll see if that's not the cvt strength, also I found out that my car is overshooting boost targets and the ecu is correcting it so it's possible that I have hit around 25 psi when I floor it and then the ecu cut off that 25psi to 17psi which is why I was able to keep up about 3 second with the camera
I have used L before but the 60 foot time on a Cvt is not great compared to a conventional auto.

^ This.

So far my record is nearly spotless because I've learned to pick the proper "battle". I don't race, exactly. I just see a car going fast on the highway like a GTI for example. I catch up and see what my car has. Once I'm reasonably ahead I go back to regular highway programming.

Recently though, I picked the wrong battle. Was passed on the highway by this really sharp looking BMW. I caught up and was ready to go for it (at about 100) when he just pulled away like a freakin' rocket. I let off the gas because I had no chance. The car? A new-ish BMW M5. I went home and checked out that car's specs... 600+ hp. :bow:
Yep - there's always someone faster.

I saw one on the road the other day. My god can those cars take off.
Yes. And they only start at $102k. I need both my arms and legs, so I'll never have one.
