Default Civic Without Engine Swap

Hi,

I was just curious what Civics would not require an engine swap to hit low 14's to high 13's. I would be going about this with some form of forced induction and was just curious on which ones would not require an engine swap.

Thanks.

You could take any civic to high 13's with a turbo kit on the stock motor.

Nope, a good old EF with a healthy D16A6 can make high 100's and run high 13's easily!

What would I need for the older ones to run 13's? Just a turbo and some bolt-ons?

TB,Intake manifold,Cam gears,Plugs,Wires...

Most of which should be included in a proper turbo setup regardless
