yeah then theres my friend that ran 13.2 in a stock boosted ls in a eg. all he was running was nothing more than an fmu and missing link. i believe it was a t3/t4 hybird im not exactly sure. but it was a completely stock block in a full interior car. he was also running about 9lbs during his run maybe 10.
but yes u figure a 1.5g's for a turbo kit if u find one, and about 400 for an ls block. thats about 2 grand for a 13 second car off the bat. sure the motor isnt going to last all that long if not built right and if its run hard constantly. im all for d series but there just lacking in initial power. i have a y8 in a 90 hatch, sure its pretty quick but nothing close to what it could be with say, an LS vtec, or a gsr. one of those motors built right in my car could easily put me in low 13's possible high 12's. even if the motors are only midly built.
all these peopel are saying is that the b series is just a better plantform to begin with, stronger internals, as well as a better design. because comon i can smoke a gsr off the line with a sohc due to its low/mid range power. but then here coems the gsr and bye bye its over. i would personally perfer a wider power band, with the sacrafice to some low end power, but with a light car and a good driver it can all be over come.
now only if i could actually do an ls vtec but mr. popo had to pull me over on the way home from work the other day, so now im stuck with a speeding ticket up the ass.
