With some mods you could. All it takes is money and almost any car can be fast.

JUST a b16? If so, he's bullshitting you HARD.

Stock SiR-II hatches in Japan come with 170hp b16s stock, with an LSD, and you can even get it with a JaSpec 4-1 header. Those cars don't run close to 13's, and barely break 14's with good driving.

I would watch-out for shops that would lie to you like that.

I've seen a crx running 13's with a stock b18c1 (well...exaust and filter) and just minor suspension mods...but thats a lighter car with a more powerful engine setup sooo....

so what do you think i would run its basically an sir with intake jdm header exhaust straight pipe type r cams tuned type r intake manif and tb with good tires and driver?

Assuming stock interior, and good driving, you have the potential to run a 14.4 give or take. Now when I say potential, I mean potential.

Don't be too disheartened if you run a 15.2 or so. I've seen it.

You will never be running mid 13s with a b16 on a hatch. Even with NA mods you wont get there...

And if you did, it definitely wouldn't be street legal.

[94hondahatch]

ok i know you guys are all being honest but it makes me really sad to hear i cant run 13's with a b16 and it still be street legal!!!!!!!well guys thanks for the input i am still gettin a b16 other then i/h/e what are easy power upgrades cam gears and crap like that??? any advice is helpful.

[PunkAlex]

Be sure to realize that they were talking about running 13's naturally aspirated....you could run 11's on a b16 wiht a turbo and still remain (mostly) street legal.

[94hondahatch]

ok how dependable would it be to put a turbo on a b16 wuld the motor need rebuilt after 50k. and lets say i get a b16 and like 8 months later i can afford to turbo does it need rebuilt befor a turbo goes on it???

[carrrnuttt]

I think you're getting into the technical side of things.

Moving to Let's get Technical!...
