place your bets.....

going to the track 2night @ dinwiddie dragstrip in Va. I have to know for myself what the true 1/4 mile time is before the car is gone.

heres what I got!(its not much)

gutted crx 88 dx
b16a1
ys1 (non lsd)
k&n air intake (not cold air)
chiped ecu (v-tech @ 4800/redline around 8400)

I'll post the time slip 2night sometime, what time do you think it will run.
I dont know what my reac time is but I'm no slouch

14.78

hmmm...how much u wiegh? a lanky 120? or rumblin 220+? :wink:

what tires? stiff suspension?

and altho i have no idea(imma CRX nub), i will take the 14.70-14.90 slot.

14.78
damn he beat me....but i am still taking this slot. was typing my responce when he posted his

14.92

Imma kill myself if he runs that..being very near my setup, at least engine and trans-wise.

and here it is......

with me weighing 260
my reac time was a 0.049
with a 15.21
@ 90.08 mph


not what I was expecting but i'm still very satisfied, and that was with very clean shifting.
This was the last run of the night for me and it was against my brother
he was in a wrx w/ sti up and down pipes, ......... whoping his ass!
I have vid of it I'll try to post it in a few min.

its 1:15am here and i cant get it to download. I will have it on here, on sat.:sleep:

pretty sweet. what did your bros times look like?

in that race (the one in the vid) I think he ran a 16.38 w/ a .387 reac time , that was his worst run of the night, all night he was running very close to me, but he didn't beat the 15.21.

ha. thats what i thought. lol. exactly what my friend ran with his b16. it was a gutted crx. with a short shifter and strait pipe 2.25. loud and annoying. nice work tho. everyone says high 14's for a b16 in a crx but it aint happening so much anymore unless you have a blessed motor. try a clutch as your next mod. it helps a bunch from first to third.

ya know bro thats funny u say that..cause its exactly what i was thinking..im sure some of you remember when u could clock a mid 14 with a b16 in a 4g..its true it sure isnt happening anymore..:shakehead

worn out motors...i though b16 crxs were low 14 sec cars...next mod...H22

i never really heard of b16 crx's being in the 14's too much. maybe in a HF crx or STD hatch.

Way back in the day (5-6 years) it was common. Heck, I was ably to hit 14's in my stock B20. But like what was said earlier, the motors nowdays are tired, beat up, before they are installed.

I'm wondering if the engine was dynotuned or street-tuned. There's a big difference.

And let's not forget the driver is a big guy - 260lbs. That's almost like two guys sitting in the car.

I was hitting low 14's when i swapped and probably could have hit high 13's if I practiced launching more. But I had pulleys, clutch, flywheel, etc...and it was tuned by a guy so good he could tune 10 hp from a turnip. Stock internals on my b16.

Where was tuning anywhere mention in the OP's mod list? He said it was chipped for lower vtec crossover and redline at 8400....which the redline part doesnt really make sense. He said nothing about a socketed ecu that is flashable.
