The fastest street legal Civics in the world have either a turbocharged ls/vtec or gs-r setup. Build the internals, crank the boost, and you'll be able to break 500whp with some tuning. 585hp is the highest I've ever seen on a Civic.

Hahahaha, eat my ass you ignorant moron. Don't get all butthurt because your econo car isn't as fast as the fast and the furious makes it look. And if you can't appreciate a REAL sports car because it is a domestic, you are NOT an automotive enthusiast. Why don't you ban yourself, by dining on a 9mm.

Let the ignorance reign, wow. If I may direct your attention to the avatar, that is my American muscle, EH2 biatch, made in ohio, by Americans, all work done by this American, now could you please proceed to bashing your dick in a door or something, before you comtaminate the rest of the world with your idiocy. And just to clarifiy and expound your idiocy that isn't a Bi and Curious "quote", as you put it, it would be a reference. So if you're going to try to insult someone, you need to make sure you come with more than your dick in the wind, and a jr. high intelligence.

Yes an LS/Vtec will have more torque AND horsepower than a B16A. I just so happen to have a full zex kit for sale too... $275...

how fast is the Z28 were talking about here stock?
and wouldnt

B18 block
B16 head
cams
high cr pistons
and all the mods required to run those things be damn fast, a 12.5:1 cr all motor CRVTEC pushes a CRX into the 11's and from the pics I saw he had the door panels, dash in there so im just gonna guess it is full interior. but a lesser built LSVTEC in a CRX should easily be able to be in the 12's low 13's I think, especially if you got 9 lbs of boost on it or your spraying a bit.

Re: LS/Vtec Really that good?

An LT1 Z28 should run high 13s low 14s... basically the same as a stock 99+ GT

Now, how much would a Ls/Vtec set up end up costing you? Roughly what would the hp/trq estimates be? This setup responds well to boost?
Not trying to hijack or anything
