Default 12 sec car? how much money would I have to spend to build one?

How much would it cost to take a stock civic vx into the 12 second range? Can you please give me a list of mods and a price estimate. I was thining of swapping in a b16a nd turbocharging that. Would that setup allow me to run 12's? How much would that cost.

Thanks in Advance

What would I run w/ just an h22a swap? How much would an h22a swap run me including the price of the motor?

a turbo charge b16 would push that if the boost was high enough and an h22 with some mods would do it to, i would say 8 grand would get you a 12 sec car

Parts only, we've done it in around $6500. ALL motor. that includes the whole swap over, ecu, axles, hydro trans, high compression bottom end(new everything from oil pump to bearings), new timing belt, gaskets, header, intake, etc.

high 12 sec dailt driver.

a H22 in a CX should hit low 13's all day stock. With a few mods and lightening along with slicks. You should be 12's alot easier then a B16 w/ boost.

shyt I had no idea hondas were this expensive to make fast. If an h22a is 6500 just for parts with labor it'll be like 8k. Then with the other mods it will be around 10k. Damn 10k is pretty expensive just to run 12's....my dream is crushed

For under $1500, you can run 12's.

Z6 motor/tranny = $400
I/H/E = you should already have these
Clutch/slicks = $500
ZEX NOS kit = $350 used
walbro 255 HP pump = $120
B&M FPR = $60

What about if you just bought a vw bug and threw in an S2000 motor, put 13:1 compression pistons in, a turbo kit boosting 30lbs DAILY DRIVEN and let's see what you got.

My friend did a backyard special EG for around $5000 including the car.

92 cx (blown motor from an old man) $700
99gsr at a junkyard (motor, tranny, axles, mounts, radiator, hoses, etc) $2400
p72 ecu obdI - $225
jdm dc header, custom exhaust, es muffler, etc $1105
Si stocks w/ tires $400
Used drop springs (cheapo unknown brand) $65
NOS Wet kit (used) $350
Borrowed slicks FREE

There were almost no little side expenses, b/c all the swap parts were taken from the junkyard car...Time was 12.47@115 on 24*8*13 slicks, on stock axles launching at 7000rpm.

learning how to drive will mean the difference between low 13's and high 12's in many cases
