Not to detract from your Acura or the newer cars, but with all the assist newer cars get,(computers,tuned port fuel injection, etc.)they should perform to their optimum levels. Muscle cars back in the day didn't have any of the tech that is available now to have fully optimize their full performance potential. Todays cars have everything available in the way of optimizing their performance all the way down to the suspension and tires.





Fuel injection doesn't increase power by all that much.

Do you require proof?

This 455 Pontiac made LESS power with EFI than it made with a good carb:

Furthermore, front wheel drive with an open differential is hardly "optimized" for drag racing.




Did the Pontiac have tuned port fuel injection? Just wondering.
