Your WS6 was about the same as my 01 and ive beaten my friends stage 3 cobalt ss with 19lbs and i DESTROYED it from a 40 and even worse from a dig. get it out the hole and from a pretty high roll cause every 4 cylinder i raced that pulled about 1-2 cars die out after 80 and then im pulling on them hard.

yea really depends on how the car is setup, is it a DD or a track car that see's some time on the streets? does he have upgraded suspension and tires and gearing? or is it just a stock GSR with 15lbs?
cause if its a stock GSR with 15lbs, he will probably explode soon. correctly me if im wrong ricer guys, but 15lbs on a stock GSR motor that isnt even low compression sounds like a bit much to me.

Yeah, a B18C1 is 10.0:1 compression, and 15lbs on stock internals is running on borrowed time. With a good tune it's possible to run for a while, but I wouldn't do it for long. But it will have plenty of power depending on what turbo he's running, supporting mods, tune, etc., and if he can hook you just might be in trouble.

You should race from a dig and from say... a 40-50mph roll. Just to see how your car does. And they weigh 2650lbs and have a 4.40:1 final-drive ratio, for the record.

I was going to say I'm betting on about 250 HP
There are so many factors with hondas now, parts are cheap to get ahold of and the stock B18 (assuming its a stock motor!!! since motor swaps are rediculous cheap for those car) has been tuned to hell and back.... I'd say you'll probably get him if its a normal street setup but if its tuned really well and has some unknown stuff done....who knows.

Depends on turbo, and the rest of the set up. 15 lbs is different from a DSM t25 turbo comparied to a GT 35r turbo. You should have him from a dig me thinks though....but again, it all depends. My buddy has a little crx with a stock d motor, but a nice sized turbo. best ET of 12.1 at 112 (high elevation....constant ~4-5000 DA. Not a large factor for boost, but still a factor), best trap of 115. Of course, the d motor doesn't last long, and he just swaps in a newer one he buys for $300, but it is a stout little car. But on the street, traction is a FWD cars enemy, so you should be able to take him from a dig.
