Sport Compact Comparison

Go to MYRIDE.COM for more car videos.
What does Sport Compact performance really mean. We put four of these little speedsters to the test. Competing for the title: From Japan we have two entries...the Honda Civic Si, and the Supercharged Scion TC, representing Germany its the Volkswagen "Obey your fast" GTI, and from the good old USA its the Supercharged Chevy Cobalt wearing the SS badge.

cobalt >si

please dont say "V-tech" that is so annyoing, Vtech is a freaking electronic company that makes phones and toys for babies. its Vtec, plain and simple. and the Si has i-Vtec way different than good old Vtec last time i read. but what i dont understand is why did a 1.8l Vtec engine produce more than 100hp/l in the US market when i-Vtec doesnt? they have the 2.0l 224hp type r JDM civic, bring that over here, and put it against these cars. no doubt it would kill. this coming from a tC owner too.

@leirocks1 well the TC guy is a friend of mine and we raced many times, we even swaped cars to se if it was the driver but it was about the same result. The scion is quite heavy in comparison with a little plastic paneled twin cam.
