I have a 93 DX Hatch with a stock b16a2. i/h/e.

think this is capable of running 15sec in the 1/4?

redlinetuning

yeah.. it all depends on your R/T and 60ft .. i've seen Type R's run 16 becuase the driver RT and 60ft was so horrible. 14 is not impossible, in fact it should be in the low 15's already.

tercel95

A stock civic Si with a b16a2 runs mid 15s and it weighs hundreds of pounds more than an EG...

forcefedferio

yes the car will be capable of atleast 15's, it is the driver that will be the variable.

you will run 12's if redlinetuning provides more pixors of avatar girl

you should be below 15's....motor ran a 15.5 completely stock in a coupe that weighs WAYY more than the EG hatch....however, they prolly had a great reaction time, prefect conditions...blah blah blah....but with a good jump, you should be just below 15's.....

My EJ with a B18C1 and B16 transmission only runs 16s, so I'd say there are a lot of variables.

Build the car, run it, then come tell us what it ran.

with a good driver i have seen them run faster...
also depends on the condition of the motor,tranny,tries, track etc.

what???? wow dude....you gotta step up your driving....no offense, but you should be well below 16's....no question, unless your motor isnt running at full output

I ran a 15.6 in my B16A EJ2 at Englishtown last year with all seasons on it and it was my first time at a track, ever. Its nothing to brag about but it is more than possible to reach that goal.

Slo_RSX

My first time out to the track in my eg I was running 15.6 at 88 MPH with i/h/e

chaokongz

thanks everyone. if i run it, it will be my first time at a track. hopefully i dont fail

just wanted somthing to go off of from now and after my b20 bottom end swap.

I believe that depending on where you live, your times will vary. It seems to me that the vehicles here in Wisconsin dont run as quick of times compare to else where. Also, somebody said that your 1/4 time will be affected by your reaction time. I thought that your reaction time did not effect your 1/4 time because your time did not start until the car moves.

my friend ran a 14.4 in his eg6 hatchback!!! b16a with I/H/E and ACT clutch.

pratice makes perfect man....
who cares if you screw up on the first couple runs after that no excuses hahaha

the couple times i raced my last car i killed it off the line lol

cvcrcr99

^^That's what I thought as well.^^

forcefedferio

don't be nervous, it's when you're nerves get the best of you when failure occurs. In my old 4 door i had a b16 on 10 psi at the time from a t3/t4 turbo, i launched off the line and broke one of the retainers for the needle bearings in my inner CV joint, causing my car to start wheel hopping real bad, i left off and then said **** it and got back in it and ended up running a 15.08 @ 99 mph, imagine how embarassing that was when your car looks serious as **** and is running open downpipe and everyone is expecting to see 12's out of it and that happens hahahaha good luck

It should run mid to high 14s with a good driver and in good running condition.

V8 Eater

eg hb(vx),usdm b16a2 swap,I/H/E & ignition **** + Tune(156 whp) with 205/50/15 si coupe rims,gsr suspension & brakes,gsr seats weighing in at 2260 lbs(please note the swap,rims,suspension,seats add weight), this car had a stock flywheel and clutch at 60k, ran 1/4 mile at 14.87 (close to sea level for alltitude)!

94solb16

my b16a2 in my del sol with motor mounts, intake and stage 2 act cluck i ran a 15.6

JDM_Frijoles

What the f**k! I ran a 15.1 at the track with a ****in single cam! If you don't break 15's with a B16 in an EG hatch you should leave the Honda game and pick a different hobby.

DownShiftPerformDC2

That single cam was probably a factory freak. They always turn up every once in a while. Like stated before Mid to High 14 second ET's is what you should get if you could drive and the car is in good running condition.

99SiR2

Runnin my Si Coupe tonight hopefully. I/H/E, 6 puck clutch with short throw, AEM fuel rail with regulator, ecu upgraded a bit. Hopin for mid 14. Any words?

JDM_Frijoles

Exactly!


That **** should hit atleast a 14.5-15.0. Maybe even a low 14 with a good driver. Get a good clutch and practice launching and timing the lights and you should be good. Most of the kids on here never been to the track or know anything about it. Good luck with your car man.

99SiR2

Still trying to practice my launch and shifts too. New user of a 6 puck and short throw. I'm not doin so hot! *Grind*

Your reaction time does not affect your 1/4 mile ET. The clock doesnt start until you move.

Different tracks and altitudes are going to effect your 1/4 time. If your close to sea leave its going to run faster then someone at 1600 ft. If you can find someone locally with the same setup they would give you a more accurate idea of what you will run. Your first time at the track try to focus on find the best way to launch your car. Don't set your expectations too high and just have fun.
