I have recently purchased a manual 88 CRX with a non VTEC B18A LS motor. It is equipped with coilovers, stage 2 clutch, 4-2-1 headers and exhaust and an intake. I haven't went and picked the car up yet, but what kind of numbers can I expect to be running in the 1/4 and horsepower.

 

i had a friend with similar setup run low 15s, high 14s with good driving.

HP @ crank: something like 150 with bolt-ons.

 

too many variables like most would say. I'd say low 15's.

Unless the motor is a 1992+ motor running the proper ECU, 150HP at the crank is doubtful. MUCH more common is to use a 1990-1991 motor. And that motor only produces 130HP stock at the crank. i/h/e is not going to bring the power up by 20HP.

 

I am not real sure what year the motor is out of, but the guy told me that it had around 175 HP, but it sounds like that is bullshit. I am going to bolt on a Garrett T3/T4 Turbo Setup with lightweight pulleys, cam gears, and new manifold with an intercooler and hope that will put me in the 13's. What do ya'll think?

 

i had the same setup you had

1989 crx si, w b18a 1990 integra with integra tranny. bolt ons.

15.4 is what you will run on street tires...maybe 15.2

have fun....

engine is 130hp you have about 148 on a good day.....

but you also added 130 lbs easy to car....which is another passenger

 

its 130 crank hp... with bolt ons you could reasonably expect 110-120 whp

 

ANY IDEAS ABOUT WHAT I CAN EXPECT WITH MY TURBO SETUP?

 

there was on article in SCC about a 91 Si w/ a 92 LS i/h/e no cat that put ~140 to the wheels. it was re-built (stock) so i'm sure that helped

but that is wishful thinking, here is what you should expect
