Sup guys. I'm new to the Honda world, I've been a ford owner my whole life I just sold my 95 4.0 ranger and bought my 91 Honda Hatch. I like it so far. I have a few questions though. What do you guys think a hatch can run with bolt-on's? 17's maybe? I love racing I use to go race my ranger at the strip all the time pulling 10.5 in the 1/8 constantly in stock form, so this car will be alot slower. I would like to get into the 10's in the 1/8th with this car but I know its going to take some money. What can I do to help pep this car up. Here is a pic of my pride and joy as well, my 98 Ranger which I still own.
Here is a pic of my car:

Ditch the stock engine and dump in a blacktop ZC. It's cheap and will get you your 10.x with ease.

I agree with Kai, swap in the zc, (unless you got the $$$ to drop in a b series)get some nice'n light 15's or 16's and some bolt-ons. The zc is the easier/cheaper swap and it will get you the times you want very easily. My friends zc crx beat a civic with a b16 in the 1/8th, then the civic took him by half his car in the 1/4 mile. I don't know what bolt-ons, etc., the civic had, but the crx only has a cold air intake, header, and a 2.25 straight pipe with the stock muffler.

Ya I have a DC 4-1 2-3 header, 2.5" exhuast, and a fireball muffler, plus a CAI, and a short throw. You guys think I could have picked up a .5 second with these mods? I was thinking I might have gained 4-5 horsepower.
