well i had 2k civic si b16a2, my best time was 14.8@93mph, all i had was aem cai , and apexi n1 , and no passenger and no rear seats.
now i got a 92 vx hb going to put my b16a2 in it aem cai , jdm dcsports 4-1 header 2.5 collector , high flow cat 2.5 in/out , custom exhaust 2.5 piping, to a es oval 2.5 exhaust, aem alt pulley,and dropped skunk2 coilovers,
i am thinking i should be able to hit high 13's beacuse i am like 500 lbs lighter, what do u think , dont say go out and do it , because i dont have the motor in yet , i have all the parts, but to cold to swap right now , plus i need a gsr 96+ harness, oh and i am getting my p07 ecu chipped,

i would say low 14s

No.

on slicks, yeah, but not street tires. But still low 14s isn't bad.

I would say low 14's. You dont have enough torque. With some serious suspension and slicks maybe, but will be tough...

anyone else has a input?

I ran a 14.2 with the JDM b16 in a VX hatch. The last little bit to run a 13 is hard. Without some cams or serious bolt-on's and slicks it's not gonna do a 13.xx. Unless you have a factory freak motor then it's possible!

its acutally going be less of difference in weight then you think. an Si weights at 2600, while VX is at 2100.
your semi stripped and modified Si most likly scaled at around 2500lbs, while the VX with a swap, larger wheels and few upgrades will tip thec scales at around 2250-2300lbs (depends on how far you modify it) remeber that VX comes with many parts which are lightweight which get trashed when the swap goes in. brakes, wheels, motor, exhaust and few other parts.
250-350lbs difference will yield about .3-.6 differnce in your time and about 4-7mph increase.

which will still put you at around 14.2-14.5 @ 97-100mph, on street tires.

i had a b16 in my vx hb and my best time ever w/ the b16 was a 13.8 on street tires with full interior with 17'' rims in the back and 14'' steelies in the front. and i had all the normal bolt ons I/H/E but i also had a itr manifold ctr intake cam and a gsr tranny w/ a phatom grip. so if u work at it, its possible. but i wold strongly recomend u switch out the block if u want some real power. good luck
