a kid from my old high shool wants to race my balt thursday. He has a supposedly "rebuilt" by the former owner B18 with a knockoff ebay intake and a terrible sounding exhaust. Just started driving a few months ago. I have an auto 2.2 with injen cold air. we are doing a few diffrent races. Just getting a baseline run before i get all my stuff put on.

thanks for thoughts and comments

 

Yeah I beat them and the new lancers prett bad...

 

Holy multipost batman!!!

 

If the Integra is stick I think he would take you out. Only because your car is automatic he can get better launch on you.

 

i ate an integra alive in my 2.2 cavalier...all 115hp rated cavalier

 

haha, i know yellow eye.

The only reason i had doubts was because of the motor. b-series arent all that bad. but i feel better in knowing that a shadtree mehanic "rebuilt" it. I really dont have faith in this kids shifting ability either. pretty damn slow and sloppy.

Honestly unless it's a GS-R or Type-R that's been well-maintained, you're probably looking at a win. Engines start to lose compression after a while (even Hondas ), rings wear out and blow-by increases, things like that will reduce an engine's available power. If he's close to stock except for an intake and a fart cannon, and he's got a high-mileage engine, you'll be just fine. I wouldn't be surprised if he's in the double digits for torque.

 

I raped an ls with an exhaust and intake, i only have a K&N SRI but mine is a five speed. Should be a check in the win column
