you gotta give up some weight #'s and suspension mods if any plus any other extras like cams or ecus, etc.

if you assume basics of suspension and 2100 lb.w/ driver wt. then 13's may be there if you drive that bi--- like you stole it...

See sig

No headers, though. The car's capable of 14.4s & possibly even 14.3s if I ever got it running right, but the season ended before I could get there.

ACT HD clutch, lightened stock flywheel, AEM CRX Si CAI, Flowmaster exhaust, high-flow 2" cat (bottleneck), timing advanced 2 degrees.

wow, you guys always get excited. it was terribly slow and non-competitive but my 91 civic 4 door (EX) went 13.98 @ 99.41 weighing 2570 lbs. (although i did have ctr pistons and type r undialed cams) - so i think if his car weighs like 200lbs. less that should be near timewise.
