w.e i got to give it to ya for having a nice truck, if i had the money for gas, payments and insurance id get a bad to the bone diesel truck. preferably a 2500HD Duramax with double-stacked chips, CAI, and 8inch duel stacks on 35s. but hey im saving up for one when i get older, but for now a civic si is the best i could do for a 17 year old lol

No effing way you were even close to a *STOCK* SRT8 Charger with your 5.3... My roomate has a '01 silverado 5.3 dual 40 series, superchips flashpaq tuner, K&N CAI, and tranny work.... Thing won't even make it into the 15-sec range, it pulls like 16.1-16.0. Stock SRT's run at 13.1-13.2.... I'll show you whats up in my dads hhhhwwwhiippp, '07 mazdaspeed 3, say a 40 roll..
Oh and to answer your question, TB spacers suck a lot, they are proven for a 5whp loss on my trucks motor.

first of all, superchips, as well as almost any handheld tuner besides diablosport plain out sucks(with superchips being one of the owrst, next to hyperjunk), second of all your budys truck sounds basicaly stock to me and third of all your not giving us any specs, of course its gonna be slow if its a crew cab long bed with an open diff and 245 pizza cutters. dont make such an ignorant statement to just say its slow without giving any specs. there is more potential to be had in that truck than almost any other truck on the road besides maybe the rare chance of a 6.0 in a half ton. put a cam in that sucker with a good tune, maybe a biger throttle body and a trailblazer ss intake manifold and your looking at 450+ hp truck. do that with your 5.4 or dodge hemi
but in your defense, i can see where your coming from, he is making some ridiculous claims of what he beats, but he said the truck had heads, sounds to me like that truck had to have alot done to it to be at the point were it would need heads.

Dude your not touching an SRT anything.... Sorry..

Vortec is factory chevy.. at least I think so. Anyway the highest "SRT" time is the truck which runs a 13.5ish if not lower... Dude come on your just standing up cause your a chevy dude, and I not saying that to start anything but its not physically possible for holeylandman to beat srt8's unless he had more extensive mods..

thats not what im saying, what im getting at is that his truck did have extensive mods, he never really got into very much details so your no one to judge what he had done to it. vortec is just what chevy calls their motors, vortec is also an after market company. honestly, iv never heard of people putting heads on a 5.3, becasue the stock ones are so good. but if he really did have after market heads, trust me, that truck had EXTENSIVE mods. probably had a big cam, but who knows, could be close to stock. the point is, you are judging it off of nothing, and thats what im getting at, im not just standing up for chevy, becasue a truck with just a tuner and intake and exhaust will only run about a 15 if its setup real good, with a good tuner, single cab short bed, ect.

True, I just based it off of what I read in his initial post.. BTW Vortech is strictly a forced-induction after market manufacturer... i.e. centrifugal superchargers.

yea, thats what i was thinking, idk what hes talking about with the vortec heads... he doesnt seem like he knows much about it, thats why its hard to say what it really had done to it.

you civic racer guys make me lol
anyways the whole point of a TB spacer in this senario is to keep intake temps down there for increasing power, and if u want to go that far u might as well get the whole intake mani spacer kit
edit* and if im not mistaken its P2R(PowerRevRacing) not PR2

not taking up for anybody. BUT, there are some fast civics! dont get me wrong. i wouldnt own one but i got some friends that are in love with them for whatever reason. and i tune and wrench for some of them. check out this video. this was last weekend in alabama. 10 second hondas are the norm these days.

10 seconds in the 1/8 mile you mean(based off of that video), which equates to about 15 seconds in the 1/4...
10 seconds in the 1/4 mile is ridiculously fast, it takes alot to make a 10 second car, despite what you heard on the fast and the furious lol.

That video is all 1/4 mile.... I've seen 10-sec civics before, but the amount of effort, money, and time doesn't add up for me.. You wouldn't be able to drive the thing on the street it'll spin 1-4 gear, and go through tires so fast its stupid. just my .02..

like others said, the spacer is useless on your car. If you want to stay N/A get a quality intake, header (I prefer toda, but you can get some that are almost as good for half the price,) and quality cat-back. Also, get a hondata and good tires and you are 90% of what your gonna get. Anything more then that is going start costing a lot.
If you want to go turbo, then forget any of that, just get your turbo kit, custom turbo-back, and a hondata.
Either-way have someone that knows what they are doing TUNE THE K-PRO!!!!!!
If your in the Broward there is a shop called Jap-tech that will take care of you. They are good people. Avoid HPC though.
Oh, and guys, the car is talking about comes stock at around 185whp, and 2600 pounds, and will out run at lest the older generation 8v mustangs stock for stock.
