well my B18B fully loaded integra (heavier than a base civic hatch) ran a best of 15.8 with catback exhaust, short shifter, aftermarket clutch & aluminum flywheel, and stupid little tuneup tricks (upgrading grounds, indexing spark plugs the same, etc). My buddys B18a swapped 91 Civic 4 door is running 15.2 with so much as nothing and _CRAPPY_ offbrand tires (very hard)... Not saying you wont beat him cause i think you would, just dont discount him just cause its a 4cyl...

So here in baltimore, we have some fast a$$ honda's. My best friends had a GSR motor (B18) with 100 shot of nitrous on drag radials ran 11.4. Granted he's one of the best drivers I've EVER seen, it's very possible to get civic to run 11's all day. A guy around here named Poor Boy has a turbo'd B18 that runs 9.80's. Granted he's running 34lbs of boost in 4th gear, you have to watch out for Hondas.....

im not dicrediting him because he's got a 4...i just know the car is slow and im not worried about it. I know im going to win, he was stupid for selling his car to my mom, but i dont mind. Just one more 5.0 to my family. My cousin has two, i have 3 (2 are 4 bangers), and my mom has one now. So im happy.

Where are these civics? All of the ones I've run into in the area are slow as ****.

I'm probably a half hour to 45 minutes away from you.
