will a b16a be slow in my 1996 civic and if yes what do i have to do to make it fast

 

a b16 is slow in any car thats ways over 2000 pounds

 

It won't be "slow," it just won't be "fast" either.

Moved to Civic/del Sol/EL.

 

i have yet to see a stock b16 in any car (besides ihe)....hatch for that matter.... run faster then 14.5 most run 15.0ish

turbo it

 

Then you've never seen a decent driver with an 84-87 Civic/CRX B16A swap run the 1/4.

 

what would a crx b16a swap run in the 1/4 i did see a crx w/ a turbo b16 run a 13.2 w/full interior just wondering cuz kinda of interested in those crx's they're just so light and whats better crx or civic hatch i know the crx's weigh 300lbs less but do the hatches hook up better/better weight transfer because of their design

 

this is the 92 newer forum... :lol:

 

There is a huge difference between "any car" and "92+ Civic." Remember, the B16A was originally a '90 Civic/CRX SiR, Integra RSi/XSi engine.

 

stop trying to save your face....and besides....you stated 84-87 crx anyhow....so your point of "remeber 90 civics had a b16" is not even close to being relavant. stock b16s in civics run 14.5 all day long. end of story!!

 

I'm not trying to "save face." You're trying pretty hard to though.

For what it's worth, this was originally posted in pre-92. I moved it here.
