Thread: turbo civic

i weighed mine at the track, 3900 with an almost empty tank of gas. only think added is an alpine amp and two alpine 10"s

I hate to tell ya man but that would never happen unless the guy drivin the civic had no arms.... just an ls vtec civic would stay right on the side of you nevermind boosted...

not true because my old turbo '94 hatch on 14psi would destroy 3.4" gtps with ease, 5-8 cars from a 35 roll was typical.

well lets see, a LS-V setup is good for high 14s at best, those motors are trash. now throw on a ****ty 60 trim that lags till 5k rpm and it's even more useless. the only B series worth it's weight is the C5, if your not going with that then you might as well stay with SOHC and do a turbo setup.

here is a video of the second race, 20-100mph. my GF was filming it so it's not the best, but you get the point. the civic is fully stripped, no dash, no speedo so we where going off mine. i let out when we hit 100mph on my HUD, and he still had not started to pull on me.

i've built 4 hondas, both N/A and Turbo. i know what they can and can not do with what mods. look around the forums and you'll find a list of my mods. thank you, come again when you know what your talking about!
