Mid-low 14's doesn't put you close to an STi. 5 seconds isn't an accurate gauge for a race. I'm sure if you wanted to you could find someone with an STi to run and figure it all out, or go to the track and prove us wrong. Where in Norcal do you live anyways?
i was just talking to this guy at my uncles work with a modded civic coupe. it has a b16vtec whatever, turbo(which is actually the stock turbo from my car, our hand me downs become your goldmines) running 10lbs, forged internals, and just about every other supporting mod you could think of, standalone, etc. his best time? 13.735. you know what his "built" engine cost him? 7grand. then the "Stage 3 turbo kit" was around 4g's, fuel control, injectors, pump, etc.
I'm gonna have to call this guy an idiot. For 7 g's I could build a motor AND do a turbo setup. Shit, even just a turbo setup on my stock B18 could get me into the 12's. I've seen a GSR run 13.7's all day on drag radials, and a 50 shot with an intake.
