Now how do yall run against tuboed cars or supercharged cars. I have a D16Y8 motor and unfortunately i had to fix my engine and my funds for the turbo had to be spent to get the car started. Will I be spankin civic, tegs, preludes..or is the power not the drastic(sp?). please let me no watsup the NITROUS. My car
currently is running on basic mods like I/H/E, Full Black Widow Kit with 17' rims
if you want to go fast (no offense) id lose the 17's... i have run a 50-70 shot for the past two years stock timing stock internals.. 94 octane gas and plugs that are one heat range colder... i only race on the street.. my best kills are mid to high 14 sec cars.. so i probably run a high14 i guess.. which means yes IF you can drive.. you will beat MOST stock bolt on hondas.. you will beat some normal swaps (stupid ones like low end twin cam 6th gens) , turbo single cams from what i have seen on this board vary BROADLY.. some you will beat out of the hole then get realed in, some are exceptionaly fast and they will beat you from the go.. and some you will beat badly.. i guess there are more variables with turbo.. such as tuning.. i love nitrous.. i will never switch power adders ever..

just a guess... at a 60 shot i THINK it is like 3-4 minutes... i can call nos tech if you need a more exact time.. but i think it is like 3 and a half minutes.. which is a lot considering you are only on it for like 12-13 seconds per race.

i heard once that y7 block +y8 head ='s pretty decent power... factor that and maybe like a 40-50 shot and who knows..:thumbup:

that would be VERY cheap.. and PROBABLY decently powered.. are you 5 speed? if so id say get a si tranny.. or ex.. and youd be pretty decent

I drive an automatic

I've always been reluctant to do a mini-me swap, tho. I figured may as well go the whole nine yards and get a full y8 engine, and just slap it onto my lx tranny (and that should give me a nice top speed :chuckles: )

but an ex I/H/E/N2O should be nice
