I/H/E single cam coupe? I doubt it'll be in the 15's, even if it was a stick. Since it's auto, I'm guessing mid 16's at best.

Depending on gearing, uhm...well anything is possible. To an extent.
Wait wait wait? It's an automatic? Oh lord. Did it shift into third before, or after you went past a quarter mile? My problem was that my car shifted right before. "shifting" it yourself doesn't help (this is how I ran my 18, heh). The fastest way I found was to put it into first, and once i got going just put it into drive and let it shift itself. Either way, I was still slow. And well, hmmm. 15s for a civic? My friend was driving a 2004 Cavalier 2.2 ecotec and he aws running mid 16's (not the same one with the standard). Anyway, I have a hard time believing you ran a 15, or the track you are at has issues.

a 1.6 5th gen ej should run high 15's...your bolt on's won't do shit in a straight line though. All it does is change the pattern of your power ban. You may get higher hp in the high end, but you're getting lower hp in the low end. In autoX it may make a dif, but in a straight line, your implimenting the full RPM and power band which doesn't really help you.
