I agree, he's pushing 11s with it for sure. Could show up with some low 11s. Don't be suprised.

What's all this "boosted" talk. Is that what the ricers call a FI setup? I guess I have a boosted Cobra...and all this time I thought it was blown.

Run his *** and embarrass him.

Yup, you are right. B16 = Civ SI motor. And the B18 series all came in Integra's.

Normally they turbo Integra LS motors b/c of the lower compression and they come w/ the most torque from the factory.


Back on topic, I think the Civic will go down in defeat easily.

Careful now.. a b16 with f/i in a lightweight Civic Hatchback can do some damage. I have a friend with a 96 Civic hatchback with a Turbo'd b18 and he dyno'd 378 hp and ran a low 11 second at the drag strip. it's all gonna depend on what else hes got done to that motor. I have faith in u ... but it's gonna be a DAMN close race!! Defintely get some video footage of this one

More like track slicks. I say full bolt-ons and a 150 shot for Insurance... Still close but launch right and it's yours...

EDIT: I just saw your sig. Why are you worried? 150 funny gas and make him pay for it by the end of the race...

Good luck man, should be a good race. The thing with thoses civics is that they are so damn light, it doesn't take as much HP to make em real fast, in the end it is still a civic and it still looks like **** no matter how fast it is. my .02

Are you gonna be using nitrious or is everybody just wanting you to? Because if you don't it's possible he might hand you your ***.
