Take the horsepowers of two 370Z’s and then add 10%. 779HP. A wild performance figure for Coki’s built-for-streets, raced-on-strips Civic EG6. Based upon Honda’s B18C VTEC engine with an extra turbo, the seriously mean machine tears drag strips regularly while still being driven all the way across Jakarta-Bandung occasionally. “Sometimes you can consider the highway as a 120KM strip,” he said jokingly.

Having previously tinkered his Genio, Cielo and even a Starlet Turbo, Coki has grown a particular interest in combining Honda’s VTEC with the benefit of turbo boosts. Despite being primarily built for the streets, Coki saw the opportunity to turn his EG6 into a two-mode multipurpose hot hatch. With ECU settings easily adjustable on-the-go and prepped with two sets of wheels/tires setups, Coki gets to use the EG6 as both a drag-race machine and a street roamer.

A diehard Honda fan at heart, Coki has always had the Estilo as one of his most favorite platforms. With ample aftermarket parts availability and limitless tuning possibilities, Coki started his two-year tuning journey with the EG6 ever since Day-1 of ownership.

Future plans? Coki has placed his target on the 12-second mark at Sentul. While primarily not relying on new parts, Coki insisted on having to retune all the parts’ settings instead. From suspension dials to ECU tunes, every little adjustment matters when strip times are measured to the nearest miliseconds.
