Default Lets build me a trailer queen, no really! PART 1

Well this should be a nice little project. Well, I found a place in town that offers race gas - while paying for gas a gentlemen came in and ordered 5 gallons. Made me wonder what he drove... and I thought, I think the ultimate trailer queen would be an awesome topic to prevoke a little thought here on HT.

So here are the guidelines...

1. Race gas is 110 octane. Nother more, nothing less - vehicle MUST run on this.
2. Forced induction
3. Although a trailer queen, this vehicle MUST be street legal
4. HAVE FUN

Since the vehicle isnt TOO important yet, and swaps can fit just about anywhere now... We will stick to the engine build up in the first part. What motor? What mods? And most importantly... what price?

Like to see some ideas

im not sure there are too many trailer queens that are still street legal cause if they were, they wouldnt be on a trailer or most hondas at least.

Engine would either be a 2jz or a 5.0L ford built around a r302 block. Both putting out about 750-850 at the wheels. Six speed transmission of coarse.

Stick to Honda motors, be it this is HONDA-tech

...and I dont know about you, but I dont think I would want to drive a vehicle that takes 110 octane on the street, since its like $31 / 5 gallons locally. Which is why I said trailer queen.

Why would you build a honda trailer queen? Ok.. Stock d16 all chromed out.. the the craziest wide body money can buy and a $50k paint job. Thats the only reason to not drive it.

Seriously, The only reason to have a trailer queen is its so pretty that you don't want anything to happen to it. Trailer queens are also show queens or carpet queens. If you just talking about a car that is so fast you would rather trailer it in case it breaks something..

Then it would be a 18c1 with benson sleeves.. 9:1 compression. Full race ac turbo kit. Aem ems. very high boost and about 450+ hp. Oh and I want two of them..

First generation B16a since they are cheap and easy to come by. I think a good budget would be $15,000.00 and that includes the chassis. For a chassis I think either a 1989 Honda CRX or a 1999 Honda Civic VX or CX hatchback would be good.

If ya wanna get crazy you could do like that one guy in SCC did with the twin motored Tiburon. Think about that with Honda motors instead of those shitty tiberon motors. It would be INSANE. They could be similar to what he had with the 2 auto trannies. I think that would be totally off the hook and it would go like a bat outta hell.
