i usually dont venture into this forum because im not a huge drag fan. However. you obviously are biast towards domestic. comparin a FWD made for economy 1.6l civic up agianst a made for performance RWD 5.0l Mustang or Comaro the Mustang or Comaro is obviously going to win on such a short budget. when yo uget itno the 15,000 for both your allow for Modifications such as internals and forced induction. and seriously, who is going to have a 5k budget on a honda and spend a large portion of it on performance. However, if you would liek o play these games.

3rd Gen RX-7 Turbo II
Conversion From Sequincial Turbo's to A single Turbo: 2,300
Boost Controller: 120
LSD: 1,100
550CC primary injectors: 350
380CC Secondary Injectors: 290
Fule Rail: 100
Fule Pump: 120
Manual Fule pressure regulator: 80
ECU Performance Programer: 530
Total: 4990

mid-high 300's to the wheels maybe low 400's on full boost and fule pressure to the wheels. on a car that weighs mid-low 2,000's that is pretty quick. easily into the 12's or lower.

or you could do like Redneck383 did.
Datsun 240Z
SR20DET: 3,000-4,500
boost controller: 120

and it will be fast.

or

For a single run?

CRX
Guting it: $0
Engine Rebuild: $500
100 shot of Nitros: $600
2gal 90% Nitro-Methane: $50
Oxygen Injection: $400
WI: $900
ECU modified to let as much fule as needed: $1200
Clutch Made by gods hand to hold this thing togather for at least 1/8 mile: well say $700
Fire Resistany Suit: $150

Crank it on the pre stage and get it going for the first 1/8 mile and coast the rest of the the way after the pistons weld to the cylender walls and the heads blow off through the hood.
