    Default Turbo Prelude and Dodge SRT-4 Dyno Comparisons

    First the Prelude.


    Now a Stock SRT-4.


    Looks pretty cut and dried to me.


    Still looking for hard facts on import reliability compared to domestics.

    Dude, your charts mean NOTHING!

    You are not comparing apples to apples here.

    An SRT4 motor is an SRT motor, a honda motor is a honda motor.

    -SRT has more displacement.
    -SRT is FACTORY TURBO (reliable boost)
    -SRT is NEW
    -SRT is a good bang for its buck backed up by good warenty

    -Honda has way less displacement
    -Honda required alot of work to drop compression and have CUSTOM turbo set up built as honda does not make a Turbo car.
    -Hondas were not Engineered to have Forced Induction.
    -The Honda Chart does not explain what setup the car was running whatsoeverall it shows is a line.
    -Honda Motors have a far different design than the SRT's
    -Domestics traditionally have more bang per buck but at a loss for luxury (For example, Lincon Navigators use FAKE wood, and they are like 80 grand, VW uses REAL wood in their 25k Jettas. Corvette, Fast as a Porsche, but far lesser build quality)

    WHATS YOUR POINT!!!

    Why do they have Ketchup in Green, Purple and Blue? Why do airlines have Coach and First Class? Why does Calgary have like 20 radio stations? Why do malls consist of more than ONE store?

    BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE LIKES THE SAME THING!!! To each their own.

    If I thingk a car is ugly, I wont buy it cause it performs better than my car. We live in a CAPITALIST society, and people can buy and drive whatever they please if it makes them happy. Some people find alot of fun in building a car that is not offered stock. A turbo Honda is not exactly something you can buy at the dealership like an SRT, so why not have it. You are obviously not a true car enthusiast. You are immature in the ways of understanding ALL manufacturers, you're still in the early stage of "My car is best and no one says otherwise" Learn to appreciate OTHER things, and step out of your bubble. Case Closed.

    That chart does have some inaccuracies in it though. Some vehicles are a bit higher than average for the time period they tested.

    Y not compare a stock turno domestic to a stock turbo import huh?

    SRT4
    we'll equate that to a maybe RB25DET?
    haha compare a RB25DET powered car to a neon there buddy
    and hp...well...if uwanna look at power y not look at 1/4 mile times instead moron
    a 240 w/ an RB26DETT has 270 hp, anf my car has stock 300.... but the 240 would slaughter me, check out 1/4 mile times
    on a stock SR20DET vs a SRT4.....fag

    This thread on it's own it makes no sense, but as a rebuttal to the above comment it does, weak as it may be.
    You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.

    Thank you. I got lazy and made a small post to quickly dismiss his point.

    It borders on trolling. But I do enjoy the spririted responses.
