Default what kind of track times can I expect?

I have a 88' dx the lightest of the ef hatches with a b18a bottom end with a b16a1 head, and a JDM S1 tranny. I am running a pr3 ecu with just the basic bolt ons such as i/h/e soon to have a decent suspension setup (koni 2 way adjustable's , energy suspension complete bushing set so I can rebuild the front end and the rear trailing arms on my car. I am a half way decent driver and before I put on the head I managed a 9.3 @73 mph in the 1/8 th mile. I Know that my last car was a 89' dx with a b18a in it and it had a USDM S1 tranny in it and I know that I ran a 9.5 @71 mph in the 1/8th mile and in the 1/4 mile I ran a 14.8 and I dont remember what my mph was in that one I think it was something like 87 or 89. Do you think that with this setup I can see 13's ? What kind of times are you guys with ls-vtec with similar mods running?

High 13's are possible on slicks with good driving

I'm guessing low 14's... you just have to practice, man. it all basically depends on you. There's guys runnin the exact same setup that can't even break into the 14's. I know a guy with a 95 Civic coupe with a b18c1(not lsvtec like you) that can't do any better than a 15.7 with a gutted rear interior and slicks.... because he sucks as a driver. his friend with a b16 CRX walks all over him every time they race...every single time. Race, get better and you'll watch your times drop. But like I said, I'm guessing low 14's once you feel comfortable with your setup.

I predict low 14's or 14 even. You will be lucky to reach the 13's. but who knows, with some slicks, and good driving, you might make your goal.... ill be rootin for ya!

atleast in the mid to low 14's. with a skunk2 intake mani and depending on the driving, could be in the high 13's. good luck, and tell us what you really get when you run it.
