if u have around 220hp-230hp then u could beat it cuz the new si has 197hp. i know its not the same but i have a b5 series and i race a 07 civic not the si . both our cars were stock at the time, i smoked him. lol 5 times . it was fun lol.

Your example isn't very good, not to mention you B5 doesn't have a 3.0L and its much lighter than a B6. Its all about power to weight ratio, my money would be on the civic SI over the 3.0L A4.

Yeah, unfortunately the civic would probably win. Our cars are pretty heavy and that slows them down a lot.

Si will definitely win. But it won't matter cause you'll still go home with the guy's girlfriend.
