1999 Honda Civic Hatchback - Power Struggle
Is NA Best Or Is Boost Better?
History is littered with tales of epic, mis-matched David- and-Goliath-scale match-ups: The Bride vs. the Crazy 88; Bruce Lee vs. Kareem; Rocky vs. Apollo Creed (twice), Clubber Lang, Ivan Drago, Tommy Gunn, Mason Dixon and finally the Grim Reaper, all in a mixed martial arts cage match.
There is an even greater against-the-odds battle brewing, and I'm not talking about Ralphie Parker vs. Scut Farkas (although it's a close second). No, I'm talking about the good old-fashioned struggle between all-motor and turbo. The supercharger set may try to get into this action but that's like the 3000GT trying to muscle in among the Supra, 300ZX, and RX-7 for '80s super GT supremacy; it just doesn't work. But if you thrive on this kind of carnage, our boy Drew breaks it all down elsewhere in this issue (no word yet on a PPV special).
