Big head Type-R

Featured Replies

Had and interesting bit of crack with a honda accord type-r the other day, you know the saloon one with twin exhast's. I flew past him on the dual carrige way and his huge vtec ego kicked in and he gave chase, after the next roundabout.

I was carrying 30ltr of lpg and some petrol so I was a bit top heavy,

Switched it on to petrol and unloaded everything onto the tarmac, I watched him in my wingmirror as he became frustrated by the screamer he had under the bonnet. At one point he started to edge closer to me but I kept on the torque and he failed to make headway, Hope it decreased his honda ego a bit ;)

Is your octavia remapped I take it?

A crap remap but still does the job, for now anyway.

Can't be that crap to beat a CTR.

Was a Honda Accord mate. ;) :P Probably still pretty quick but a wee bit more of a barge than a Civic.

It was pretty much the same as mine but I had 30 probable allot smoother power delivery. I suffer from flat spots on the rev range I think I may need a 4bar fuel regualtor what do you think?

4bar helps but also needs mapping or it will overfuel, piston wash wear = pain.

Accord type R lovely car...should be about even if driven well :D

Accord Type R puts out 217bhp IIRC, nice cars but need to be screamed like any VTEC honda...

It wasn't the new type-r accord, does the old one push 217bph?

Old Accord Type R had 212PS or 209BHP. My old chap had one for 3 years as a company car. We worked at the same company at the time so I used to get to drive it on a weekly basis, and I still say to this day it is the best car (besides my Westfield) I have ever driven.

Got written off by some muppet T-Boning it...
