i would like to know what kind of times you single cam owners run with what mods. vtec/non-vtec

I have a 98 ex single cam (d16) that runs a 17.9 with a short ram intake. I have a 92 civic that runs 17.7 with a cai, stripped interior, and a stage 3 clutch. The times are pretty damn slow, but ive only tested each car once, it was hot as hell out, and im at a mile high altitude. If you're interested in seeing times of sime nice single cam engines, id say check out the d series forum at e-z board:

Someday my single cams might actually be fast, but for now im stuck practically stock in 17's until i get some $$$

I have a 95 civic ex with the stock SOHC vtec d16. basic mods - cai,short shifter, cat back exhaust...my best was 16.3 @ 84 mph on stock 14's....i dont know how it runs that...every other SOHC civic i have seen with the same mods run high 16s, low 17s...a lot has to do with the driver :sun:

yep, -average: 17.5.......- best: 16.95. ...1993 civic EX SOHC. <<
CAI, headers, short shifer, knocked out catty, 17 in rims, plug wires, damn, i thougt i had more than that.

*ahem* u have a HEADER...im now done w/ this thread.

look for high 16-low 17 second passes depending on conditions (alt, temp, track cond...etc..)

what's with the gay times. sport compact car ran 16.8 in a dx hatch with the stock motor and that motor has 102hp. so how in gods name is a 23 hp gonna slow it down

weight...an cuz if u compare power TO THE WHEELS...they are only about 10-15 in difference...

well actually it's more like 18-20 difference. and that's a pretty good gain in hp. and how come a guy on this forum ran 15.8 in an ex with i/h/e and high flow cat. and that car is about 300 lbs heavier than mine and you said i would run high 16's to low 17's right. well then he would have to run like 17.5 stock if that were true cuz his car is heavier. so you're saying that i/h/e cat lowered his time by almost 2 seconds. wow. those are some killer products that he's using.

i never was talking about the ex. i was talking about the dx, an those are the rite times. the ex will post mid 16's, the SOHC non-VTEC civics will post high 16 second passes. how many of those new 7th gen civics have u seen running those times? for the most part, they run low17's to high 16's because of their extra weight. the guy had stripped out his car and was a VERY good driver. u can't base wut ur car is going to do off of wut one guy can do in his.

there are too many variables to say EXACTLY wut UR car will run, but those are guess-timates, an they are correct. yes some will run faster, some will run slower. but believe me, the civic ex w/ i/h/e isn't too much to sneeze at...

i ran 14.8 my third time ever trying....this summer i should be alot faster.....

i ran 14.8 my third time ever trying i hope this was n/a?

yeah it was, im building a hi compression motor right now.......


gunnmen01

00 civic ex coupe automatic. Greddy turbo kit @ 5psi, greddy evo exhaust, stock tires. Ran a best of 14.9@95mph

damn- i thought dudes would be running better then mid 16's with the sohc vtec's. right now i got a d16z6 with cai and cat back and i though i would be somewhere in the mid 15's or so, but i havent been to the track yet..i was hoping to get into the upper to maybe mid 14's with cam/camgear/header/intake manifold/higher comp pistons/hondata and some dyno tuning..i think i got my work cut out for me:D

what kind of car do you have?? hatch, coupe, etc

its a 93 ex coupe- heavy as hell right now cause i just moved out of my dorm room and im too lazy to completely empty the trunk:D

I ran mine long time back on a cold crisp day and all I had was a short ram intake. I have an auto 95 ex coupe and ran 16.8 at 86mph. I got a cat-back now I bet I could shave off a tenth. Not in this heat tho....

Expect mid to high 16's cool day, low 17's on a hot day. With a DAC that is. CAI is a bit different, its pretty stable and doesn't fluctuate as much with temp.

DAC fluctuates like mad, let me tell you. It was hot for like a week about a month back, I'm talking 90 degrees, real weird, and my engine was dogging; then one day temp drops to 40 (does that around here) and BAM!! I stomped the gas like I had been doing to cross the 4 lanes of traffic outa my apartment, and nearly gave myself whiplash. It scared the tar outa me I almost lost control of the car wit the torque steer. I'm not shittin ya I bet I coulda run a 12 that day sheesh it was nuts.

I say get a CAI if you don't want little scares like that. And don't get the bypass valve I hear its crap and only need it if you drive through rivers on occasion...

lol. i don't know about that one sonny

nah man, ujus gotta nice breeze behind that wing of urs :D j/k.

i kno u were being a lil sarcastic...but 12's? hahahhahah...com'n now...

lol ur right I wouldn't know a 12 if it hit me :D

but you get my point anyways. It was ALOT faster.

and maybe a tailwind lol :D

My personal best was 10.013@70.42MPH in the 1/8 mile, that translates into about 15.5@88mph in the 1/4...

I found this out by searching for times and i came across KrNxRaCer00
's first time racing, his 1/4 mile times matched my 1/8 mile times almost to a T, so i just used his 1/4 mile time...

i could be AROUND that time, the only thing is that u have to factor in how strong ur 3rd gear is, an how long u'll be in it. the 200sx will run a 2.1 60' (compared to my 2.3) but can only get down the track at 15.2 (stock) because of its lack of top-end. but i'd say u COULD run that time, considering i dont know ur car.

jus was something u gotta consider.

wtf i run 16.19@84.95 mph with my civic ex coupe i only have aem intake ans exhaust. but i ran it with 14" spoons on the front and 17" on the back and all i took out was my right corner lense and my speakers and spare that were in the back

that is pretty good. pretty damn good

Dave hickman runs 12's with his all motor sohc in his crx and can hit speeds of 150 on the freeway..... its generating about 175 whp im told

14.012 @ 100.5 MPH @ 8psi

Did that with just the Greddy kit, FMIC, BOV, boost controller, and EVO exhaust. Stock wheels, tires, and everything else.

nice time

you guys are lucky to be running at low altitudes. You wouldnt believe how crappy all the cars run way up here. Stock civics run 18s, swapped civics run high 15's, turbo gsr @ 7lbs ran a 14.8, same as a z28 camaro. i just ran my dx again at high school drags and got a 17.8 with a full tank of gas. Unfortunately i didnt make it to eliminations due to my honda key falling off my keychain :angryfire i was hoping id do well too, i cut .105 and a .047 reaction times for my two runs. Oh well, now i gotta wait until labor day

14.8 without the nitrous on a SOHC? LoL ok...I call BS on that one :rolleyes:

Who said that??

uh...are u jus trying to start flame wars broken? who said 14.8 on a SOHC? an besides...that isn't unbelievable at all w/ out nitrous.

No I am not trying to start flame wars but was I mistaken reading SOHC times as a thread? and then someone posting that was N/A right? It written right there for you not my fault you cant read...

gunnmen01

This is the guy who ran 14.8 and it was WITH nawz...and some other motor mods:

95 D16Z6 w/chipped ECU, K/N intake, JG edelbrock cam and cam gear, pace setter header, 2 1/4 in. custom exhaust 75 HP zex kit, arospeed coil overs, 16" MAS wheels, 92 integra rr. disc brakes,91 crx si rr. sway bar, complete prothane bushing kit,


Obivously, it's YOU that can't read. :flipa: FOOK OFF!

I don't think he read the part about being N/A.

well can anyone tell me what they think mine might run. it is a 94 civic dx stock with k & n intake, pacesetter header from a b18, stage 2 clutch, 2 1/4 pipes back to a obx exhaust. i have timed my 0-60 and it was roughly high 7's to low 8's. just wondering

^^
16's.
