UPDATE** Civic vs. my car
Alright, heres the deal, my buddy is selling his 87GT to buy a 93 Civic. Now he's saying he's walking all over my car and all this. I run the 1/8th in 7.53, thats my fastest time on slicks. He's trying to say, its a B18 swap with a small home built turbo kit on it. Well, I think his head is a little bloated from the boost, its only running 10psi. Im not sure on everything but the car is complete, it isnt gutted or anything like that. But im going to iusult him when we race. At the track, im responsible

Hand him his ***! Those cars are so unreliable.....he'll probably not make it thru the 1/8th trying to keep up with you....he'll blow something off.

Depending on the type of B18 (B18A/B18B or B18C1 or B18C5) he could easily walk you with a swap + turbo... B18A has 130hp, B18B has 140hp, B18C1 has 170hp and B18C5 has 190-210hp... add 10lbs of boost in a lighter car... you do the math... a local has a B18C1 with a turbo on it and a limited slip tranny running 11's....

My car is almost fully gutted, with me in it and a half tank of gas, it weight like 3,010lbs. I have 319whp in it and like i said the fastest ive ever ran in the 1/8th was a 7.53 with all my new suspension and ET's. A 7.53 is about a 11.90-12.00. Think about if i threw a 150shot on it. My bottom end can easily handle it, but when i built the motor i didnt was to run nitrous.

No offense dude, Your mom sounds hot just with that little tidbit of info!!!!
Yea, i know, trust me i am. He sold his 87GT to my mom. lol, she's loving it.
Yea, she drives the living **** out of it to. I swear she spins the tires everywhere. My dad was telling me about him when he was dating her, he had a 67 Fastback then and he said he let her drive it to work once and one of his friends asked what girl was driving his car because she was running the hell out of it when he saw her. lol...guess thats where i got it from.
