Re: stock 88 l98 vs 94 civic si
The big things for the civic will be
1. How well do his parts match
2. Is it properly tuned
3. What is his A/F Control system
It could be any real result depending on how good of a job he did building the motor.

No contest from a dig. The d15is a Sohc motor and even with the vtec i think they made like 130 max from the factory. His mod list doesnt look that extreme and i doubt its got a perfect parts match/tune as almost no civics do.

I have seen mild tuned d15 civic with similar parts lists pull 13s they dont weigh much
My worst loss ever on the street was from a dig when a 10 second turbo civic helped me relearn power to weight ratios.

LMAO.. Excuses - Excuses.. lol.. thats all you seem to hear after a win..
I always say, "It doesn't matter if you win by a inch or a mile, winning is winning " (fast and the furious)
That usually shuts them up..

Re: stock 88 l98 vs 94 civic si
They dont make an ounce of torque and just move their power band up higher.
How often you see a ***** car gear the car for their mods? Almost never.
unless they got a whole lot of boost they arent going anywhere.
