OK, this is more of something based from anyone's opinions. Basically I would like to know if it is possible to reach 12.0-12.5 times with only a 1.8 liter or is it very very necessary to just go 2.0? Trying to avoid sleeving is what I am getting at......
I know it's been done before with a b16a stroked out back in the day with Tony Shagday but I am very very curious to see what potential a ALL MOTOR 1.8 could do at the track. For arguementative reasons lets say this so call 1.8 would be in a daily driven hatchy weighing in at 1950lbs "car itself" street tires also. Tony's car back then was obviously gutted like a fish and you know the rest, I believe it ran a best of 12.1 in the skunk/Zspeed teggy.
The thing that has me going is that I have seen "occasionally" dyno's of 1.8's that produced tq figures in the mid 140's.
Let me know your opinions????
