Im beginning to think that my civic with a b16 just wont be fast enough. All these stories of a b16 civic not being able to beat a non-turbo 300z. . lol, im contemplating not modding my car at all now.

Man you'll beat it. They're not fast at all. If you want more torque and power cheap...get a gsr shortblock or ITR shortblock.

Thats becuase the b16 sux-oars, get something with more torque, ala b18 or b20 at teh least.

Or go the good method. B18 shortblock with b16 head. DOHC V-TEC. Nice nice nice nice *drools*

stock b16 in a civic should be hitting high 14's. Nothing great, but nothing to laugh at either. And thats stock.

I went through the same worries before, and they have come and gone.

Huh? Non-turbo 300? They're slow.. I hung with one in my parents Jetta and it was slow as dog shit. B16 should handle it just fine.

torque is better than HP.
