b16 civic huh... gee, we dont see many of those...


1500 to play with... u want to go fast or what???

you could easily spend all of that on bolt on stuff and if your lucky get your hp to about 160whp.... (give or take a few)

hmm... you could spend a few hunded on nitrous, (best bang for the buck) but nitrous is overrated.. (i think)

you could save more and go turbo...

you could spend it on a paint job...

****.. who knows.. you can do whatever.... invest it maybe...

as for 1/4 mile times... just go race and find out for yourself. however, i wouldnt expect to set any records.. but.. maybe you'll have fun at least...
