HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

5spd FTW

Plus you kinda look cool if you dump the clutch (and don't have an accord lol)

for all you v6's:

do you chirp into 2nd (or 3rd)?

i saw a vid of a 6th gen v6 w/cl-s 6spd swap and he could chirp 2nd and 3rd.

but with the longer gears and auto tranny, do you at least chirp 2nd?

on good pavement i can get a pretty good chirp into 2nd, but not even close in 3rd.

naw i can chirp in 1st gear with my v6 but i cant even get close in 2nd. and i've raced a i4 manual before (my friend and he can drive) and he did pull on the beginning but he never got even close to 5 car ahead of me like maybe 2-3 and i took him from there. i dont think honda would design the i4 to be able to beat a v6 in the 1/4. that just sounds stupid. but honda did mess up on the v6 tranny
