Transcript

You want a car that absolutely nobody talks about, this is it, and it only takes a few key mods to completely transform it. The foundation is the 1993 to 1997 Honda Delsol SI, a tiny Targa top Honda that most people write off as a slow front wheel drive car. From the factory, it came with the 1.6 liter d 16 z six with VTech, making about 125 horsepower. It's light, simple, and completely underestimated. The perfect sleeper formula. Here's where things get interesting. Bolt on a turbo kit, add larger injectors and a fuel pump, and finish it off with a proper tune. Suddenly, this humble Dell saw jumps to 250 horsepower on stock internals while still looking bone stock from the outside. No wide body, no giant wing, just a clean Honda that looks slow until it isn't. With boost, the Dellsol's lightweight chassis completely changes the experience. Zero to 60 drops into the low worse, it pulls hard through every gear and the car finally feels as wild as it looks with the roof off. It's raw, mechanical, and fast enough to embarrass modern hot hatches, all while having that classic VTech feeling. So tell me, would you keep it OEM plus sleeper, or turn the Delsol into a boosted Tier top street weapon hiding in plain sight?
