I'm not being gay about a Vtec or anything, BUTTT, why is the torque figure sooo sooo low compaired to the bhp?

Surely the bhp and torque should be about level?

That's just how vtecs are, low torque, high bhp but that question has led me to realise something.....

How much more torque does the b18 have over the b16??As the bhp is about the same.

Youll still get owned by an XE corsa lol.

agree with lee
i use to work for honda and drove the 1.6 vti - i was very surprised

if a corsa with c20xe in beats it then the civic either has a realy realy realy realy realy shit driver or a proper f**ked engine
