> [@Nis240](#): > > [quote=Variable][quote=Nis240][quote=Variable]My civic runs 13s… Its NA… The engine had a Racer designs short ram intake and a ractive header.

What does a Integra with the Integra engine you have in your civic run the quarter in?[/quote] Well My ITR which has only a spoon air filter can run a mid 14… The civic has a GSR engine in it which makes less power, but the car is considerably lighter do to the fact its completely stripped out and is a civic, even though its a coupe. A stock GSR would likley run a high 15 to mid 16 second quarter with a good driver. ---

It likely has a really high lift cam in it… and it likely needs a slight timing and carb adjustment. Its straight pipe side exit…Its pretty normal sounding IMO. ---

I think that the smoke of the Honda/Nissan war, has blinded our eyes, to how bunk Ford, and Hyundai are. thanks. -1 ---

Google video had a vid of that online, I can’t find it anymore though. They shipped it to Germany to attempt a high speed run, it flat out hauls and idles smoothly. ---
