Modded S5 Vs. 08 V6 Accord

Normally i dont waste my time with hondas, but this kid was driving like a hardass on the highway with his girlfriend in the car and his friend in a Caddy suv following.

seeing as how the car looked nice (V6 coupe with decent rims) and the fact theyre pushing 271 hp /254 torque i figured id give him a run.

I pulled up next to him and started toying with my blow off valve (Loud mother f****) and he decided to jump. i was cruising at about 80 so i dropped into 4th and almost instantly starting pulling on him. once i hit 5th (pushing 12psi on a hybrid turbo) he was way behind me.

funny thing is, he kept comin back for more. i think i embarrased him in front of his friends

either way it was a good indicator of what kind of power im making. i havent had the money for a dyno tune/run yet.

I wouldn't even try to figure out what kind of power you are making off of beating that accord that bad. Back when I only had a throttle body mod, a cone filter, and an exhaust for "power adders" on my 86 n/a, I beat one of the 06 civic si's with the K20Z3 making at least 200hp (he had an intake and stock is only 197hp) from 50 to 100mph when we cut back, I had probably 1.5 to 2 cars on him. Sure I was lighter, but I wasn't making near 200hp, probably more around 155. They are completely different cars with different power curves different weights and everything.

I would say good kill, but your story doesn't sound close enough to be a good kill, instead I'll say. Good job putting the honda in his place in your rear view mirror.

Especially for the fact that apparently people on the RX-7 Club are illiterate and can't read that he raced an Accord Coupe(which has 2 doors incase you didn't know) which couldn't possibly be a sedan seeing as how sedans have *gasp* 4 doors. I'd say nice kill. The Accord coupe's don't look all that bad and perform pretty well for what they are. But cocky Honda owners need to know their place in the food chain

I wouldn't exactly compare my car to an Accord in the performance department. I also don't race people in it.

No, I didn't read that it was a coupe, I saw "Accord" and posted.

Either way, its an Accord.

^ Exactly, coupe or sedan, it's still an Accord.
