what about a B16 or B18C...those are both motors that will put you in the 13s NA in a civic.




show me one that is in the 13's all motor and has nothing but bolt-ons. that means no internals no headwork strictly bolt-ons....with the possible exception of a B20 in a hatch.




take yourself to jdmcivic.com (this is where all the respectable civic owners are IMO) and have a look...

a b20 is not all that great without the vtec head, the only reason to opt for the b20 is for the torque. A GSR or Type R block can still hang with anyone with a b20/vtec...just have a look for yourself. With that type of HP in a vehicle that light, it doesn't take much to post low #'s.

Edit: and this is not far fetched, you did not specify that the vehicle can only have bolt ons, you stated that without FI it will go nowhere and that is simply not true. I should say with "minimal" mods you can make it into the 13s NA.
