How about pistons and such? Or maybe something else a little more internal?

Sounds like the hatch needs a new or stronger clutch.

driver.

edit-your saying dont worry bout the hatch i want to know why the ex is so strong.

well we are staying with the hatch because the ex is NOT so strong...its just that your hb is weak and we are trying to figure out why.

i say its driver tho.

Is it a 93 Civic Si with the D-series motor? Or does it have a transplanted B-series. The 92-95 Hatch Si's were, 1. HEAVY, 2. Had D series motors (If I remember correctly, they have the 127 HP and 108 lb/ft of torque). If he has a BUILT Si motor from 92-95 then it's more plausible that he's keeping up, but still means the hatch driver is horrid at racing.
