Otherwise its great for a little 4 inline. Engine sounds better than most imports IMO. Ive never really abused it tho, so that may be why.
Did u supercharger urs?? must been quite a bit of fun to drive LOL..
BTW hows the evo? Great car for the money?
I was looking for a honda civic si for my mom (the contour is hers). But I like the look of the evo as well.
Hopefully i can get the contour running to sell it off, its amazing that that body is in excellent shape. Just finished up the headlights (im a retrofitter) but otherwise no damange or rust on the body parts.
Yes I put a Jackson Racing supercharger on it...first one. With a Mustang GT MAF, 42# injectors, CTA intake, 2.6" pulley, custom chip, and 4-1 header/custom exhaust I made 160 WHP with my auto (about 70 more WHP than stock). It was fun. 
As far as the Evo, it is a definite step up from the Contour. I mean everything. Not to mention I got it for a steal. It has some mods already....and is getting faster and faster.
