Buddy with turbo Honda talking smack...
Friend of mine put a T4 on his 94 Civic hatch. He had it dyno tuned and it put down 220fwhp at 9psi. And claimes it will run low 13's, and I should be scared.... Are those times accurate for his power with a light weight hatchback?

Actually, doesn't sound too far off (given he can drive/hook)... those EG Civic hatches weigh less than 2500lbs, and 220whp is enough for low-mid 13s. I know that RSXs with 200-210hp run mid-high 13s, and they weigh about 300-350lbs more. So depending on his transmission/tires, he very well could be running low 13s.

Thats what im saying...its not even a vtec. Its a 1.5 sohc. He loaded so its nothing for him. He paid $500 for a ebay kit another $300 for odds and ends and another $800 for the dyno tune and new computer. He has a bunch of nice cars BGN, impalla SS, vette,olds cutless drag car, not sure why he decided to dump money into that turd.

If he's turboed and sprayed, then it's gonna be a pretty quick car. Even if he can't hook from a dig, it's still gonna be quick from a roll. Assuming he's running ~8psi, he's somewhere in the 250-275whp range. So then add a 75 shot to that, and you're looking at ~325-350whp. Which in a ~2600lb car is no slouch. But it all depends on the setup.

I think he could run somewhere in the 13s if everything fell together...
honestly if I could get a cheap hatch civic and a cheap ebay turbo kit I'd put them together and expect a 14 second daily driver that would return 30 MPG and start everyday....lol
