Just out of curiosity anyone ever seen what the full potential of the d15 is? my girlfriends cousin just bought a cx hb and it comes with the d15, he said he wants to shoot nos, i told him not to, all that NOS may clogg his intake ! hehe, man that thing is tiny!

 

actually i think someone built a turbo that could put the 1.5 into the 13's on a stock set up, but i think it was the 1.5 from the older SI's

 

Well, I'm sporting the D15B1 in my STD hatch ...... 70 horses of raw power mated to a smooth shifting 4 spd manual tranny!

I found out it can do one major thing ...... get me to work where I can search for links to finding the place that sells the cheapest B16A swap, that's about it!!

 

jayson whitfield built that 1.5 turbo crx awhile back, pretty sure that it went low 10's or maybe mid 10's. it was a turbo mag cover car along time ago (couple of years ago, not sure)

 

lol...hehe u a funny guy typeR... ....good advice

I remember that car. It was all airbrushed, even the NOS bottles. Heh... that's taking it a little far, though.

 

KG built that car and it ran 10.21 @ 141mph...that will put most stuff on the trailor.I don't think they tweaked all the tuning they could get out of that car though, so more possible.

Makes me think that Larry from Endyn and his SC car if it really exists been covered like a monster already.Rest assured that car was mech. prepped though.

 

"what the hell can a d15 do?"
fall into the trash can pretty fast

 

Well...I am not sure about what it can do but my d15b2 ran 18.078 (73.94mph) bone stock in my 4-door Civic....I know it is slow, but there is a stock baseline for you. I ran that on stock 175/70/13 Michelin's, with 3/4 tank of fuel (I know, I know, but I wasn't planning on going to the track, and I didn't empty it), and with all easily removable parts out (spare/jack/tools/**** in trunk)

 

A d15 is good for autoXing cause you dont have enough power to get crazy! I used to autoX with my 93cx and I used to beat vr6's and si's all the time with a spring, strut , tire package! other than that it would cost you a ton of cash to get your 1.5 to run fast...

 

I have personally seen a D15 in a hatch run 13's turbo'd 14's consistant at LACR and there is the worlds fastest 1.5 that is in a green crazy looking CRX I can't remember who the driver is but it pulled 10's all day long.

 

See my post above, the driver was Jason Whitfield...10.21 @ 141 mph. Prob had more tuning in it though!!!

 

Yeah that's it Jason Whitfield, crazy looking tribal green CRX with a 1.5

 

I dunno, but let me know I have an HF, cannot go very fast, but I still turn heads... Whoever said you can't get by through looks alone. I did give in and bought an Si though the HF's lookin too pretty to be a daily driver, anyone know where to find a B16a for cheap? the cheapest I found was $1060.
