I used to have a Pug 106 gti and i used to get civic type R's race me all the time(private road of course) and they always used to waste me, so i got my own back bought a scoob, and now all i do now is get my own back, unless they have a supercharger strapped on then ill be eating my words. But nice looking cars with a bloody good engine.

I know that Civics type r's aint slow, its what you can do to scooby on modifying terms that can make them fast, by de-catting the scooby exhaust system you can get an extra 30-40bhp, i have MY00 a uk spec scooby, ive
de-catted the whole exhaust system + loads of other mods and money put in, and ive run at Santa Pod 13.6 and i estimate around 270-280bhp which aint bad, next on the list is a ecutek remap for some extra horses.

It aint to bad on the old juice if you aint got a heavy right foot that is, which is really hard as you drive past people you like to give it the dump valve(the granny scarer). i try to only use the scoob on the weekends, and drive my van on weekdays, as i don't want to keep filling up with optimax everyday.
