WAAIIIITTTTTTTTTT just a cotton fuggin minute. Your buddies stock, b16 honda civic. Just a stock B16 in a coupe. No bolt ons. No turbo. Just the engine swap.....and it ran with a bolt on gt500? Would you like to tell me exactly what color crack you are smoking? A stock B16 in a 92-95 civic couple (the lightest of the coupes) would be a mid 15 second car on a good day downhill with a wind to its back. And thats with a perfect launch and a great driver. Most b16 civic coupes without some work or boost run low 16's.
Now if you were talking a stock bottom end b16 with some boost in a 92-95......yeah im still not believing you. A stock bottom end b16 is going to make at maximum less than 500whp. And its going to need more than that to hang with a stock gt500 much less a full bolt on car. And its not going to make that much power on 10psi regardless.
For example. My friend had a 2001 Integra Type-R. On the stock bottom end at 16psi on a T3/T4 turbo it made 424whp. To make that kind of power on a bigger turbo at 10 psi, the stock bottom end wouldnt hold it.

Stock b16 longblock (stock head port/head, stock valvetrain, stock cams, stock bottom end) on 10psi ive said it like 1000 times in here, please go back and read all of my posts instead of skimming through here. If your buddy makes 424 on a small turbo and switches to a bigger turbo on less psi but makes the same power it would have no affect on anything but the power curve characteristics (spool time etc...), it is still putting down the same power. The first thing to go on a stock b-series are its ringlands.IF you guys don't know anything about turbo cars why do you chime in? He has vids of it on his gopro, ill be at his house tonight ill upload the video if he hasn't deleted it. Believe what you want.

[QUOTE=ej1overspool;16508304]For some reason people only like whatever brand that they drive and everything else is "poop". It doesn't matter if you like/own/build a Chevy, if you don't think Honda's are the worst then your gay apparently.

You got me good with that one. You have no idea what I have built, owned, drove, raced, or anything else for that matter. I'm not impressed when someone throws money at their grammy's grocery getter to have a 500 rpm power band. I know when your mom picked you up at the theater after seeing The Fast & The Furious that you went home thinking "my mom's Civic is badass." Save up your money for Race Wars, you will decimate all......
