Beat the shit out of it! I saw dyno sheets off of early release Si's with sub 10 miles on them making as much WHP as advertised flywheel HP from the factory.Honda motors are assembled well enough theres no need for breakin.
First new car, so although I would like to see how it pulls, I am gonna be a little girl for the first 500 miles....
There is dyno sheets showing the SI making 200ish to the wheels?!?! It's the k20z3, so I would expect around the same numbers as the new rsx.... But damn if they are putting down flywheel #'s to the wheels, that would be awesome!!!
And Jim yes this is the newly designed civic SI coupe.... I would never have considered the 160hp flop of a SI from the past years.... YUCK!

Congrats on the purchase. Considered it myself....but the only main thing I dont like about the new civics is the short hood and the rear suspension. Otherwise it does make me very jealous of the LSD and Navi option.....although those are coming soon, just got my JDM folding mirrors ordered and should be here in a week or two from Malaysia.
Good luck with the project, let us know what happens and all the options you got on it.

Is it just me or are they only making them at the Alliston Canada plant? Not sure, I just noticed when I looked at the VIN of one on ebay.
