Featured Car: Gen's Vanni built Y-Tuned Turbo Civic


From the outside you would think that this car would be any other modified Honda. An all steel car, carbon hood, trunk and of course a B series engine. The large front mount intercooler might make you wonder what's under the hood but then again since you see it on regular "gas station" tambay sessions you would say "this car can't be that quick".

Last year, Gen run a best of 11.6 sec in one of the legs of the Drag Race Championships. This puts his car in the Pro class category and boasts to be one of the first street cars in this bracket.


Under the hood the car is powered by a B16EG power plant that produces 508 whp and 301 TQ

Arias 81mm pistons
