LOL ok so My girlfriend's father is a Chev man, he always boasts about his '85 Camaro and bashes my '05 4.0L. Tonight he was in quite a drunken state when he bet me that he could beat my car in a quarter mile driving his daughter's '03 civic.
The Civic:
I believe it is just a stock 5 speed, 4cyl with some aftermake cold air intake.
The Ford:
my mustang is a 5 speed 4.0L with a KNN cold air intake, 70mm throttlebody with a Steeda spacer, Dynomax X-pipe Dual exhaust with GT stock mufflers, and it has been custom tune from SCT.
Now I bet him 100$ I feel like I have a pretty fair shot, or am I out 100$?
you should easily win...personally i would have taken advantage and bet more then a 100...but launch good no spinning the tires and you have it in the bag

my advice, dont even slam it off the line, just ease into it if you dont know how to launch. spinning like mad might cause you to lose, however if you ease into it then you will win outright anyway. i believe a stock civic si (if it is an si) of those years ran mid 16's. your car should run about 15 flat with your mods at least, maybe even 14's assuming a good launch. factor in an easy launch, youre lookin at 15.1ish against his 16's
go have fun and be safe.
then after you beat that stupid little civic and take his 100 bucks, go double or nothin against his camaro. practice your launches (rev the engine up to about 3K, then launch from there, easing into the throttle AS MUCH AS YOU CAN without wheelspin) and take him for another 100 bucks
