There are alot of variables that will factor in, but in a word, yes you *should* be able to beat Si's and GS-R's. Si's I really don't waste much time on anymore, GS-R's make for a better race.. well not really, but I'd like to think so ;) I've gotta find an ITR to try on for size :D

On 5.5psi, an otherwise stock EX should see about 140whp. Intercooled and with a larger exahust, DP and/or TP you can see over 155-160whp easy at just 5.5psi. For comparison, the B16A2 puts out about 134whp, the B18C1 about 145whp.

dont forget that you should also have considerably more amount of torque also..

Well if you are ever out in my neighborhood I'll change your mind about wasting time with Si's.

Hey whats UP. XBiRd. My car is totally stock except for the things i have listed on my sig. HOwever, i boost 7 lbs instead of 5.5lbs. I didn't adjust anything but after i got my exhaust and tood my cat off my boost gauge reads half bar which is 7lbs. I raced my friends SI and Gsr and i smoked em. I usually take em out in third gear. My rims are 16's. ANd right now my head gasket is blown and my clutch is slippin liKe its on iCe. But i still can beat em. if you have any other questions just let me know. Peace.....

nice.. holy sh*t, you don't even have an intercooler and u r running 7 psi !!!??? that's nice !
i am going to use neuspeed sport springs, and i was afraid it won't look COOL enough, but now it's LOW enough !! yahooo ! i am running 16" rims too in summer ! u using 205/45/16 tires, right? stock shocks??
anyways, i got everything ready to install my turbo, just waiting for the parts to come.... early december !! :(
i got boost gauge, a/f ratio gauge installing it tomorrow... and everything else is set....
turbo kit, greddy evo exhaust, neuspeed springs, dc sports shortshifter, tokico shocks, turbo timer, i thikn tat's all i have
any suggestions on what next mod i should get?? coz i want to push up to 6 or 7 psi.... intercooler?? clutch?? after these stuff, i want to push up to 8 or 9 psi... anything suggestions on what to upgrade?? let me know
I LOVE HOW YOUR CAR LOOKS !!! MY CAR'S BODY IS ALL FREAKING SCRATCHED !! FRONT BUMPER AND REAR BUMPER ! STUPID CANADIANS JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE !!! BUT IT'S GOOD, COZ NOBODY WILL STEAL MY CAR COZ IT LOOKS UGLY !! HEHEHEHE

dp is the down pipe
tp i think he was talking bout the throttle bodie but im unsure

DP= Downpipe
TP= Testpipe
Upgrade to a larger DP (2.5")
Remove the stock cat and replace with a TP (2.5")
Add a mandrel bent 3" catback witha non-restriced muffler
You'll now see gains of 15whp++ depending on what you're boosting.
I got 138.1 whp with my kit.
All I had done was the Greddy turbo at 5.5 psi, DC Sports catback exhaust, and regapped stock spark plugs.
I have beaten Si's at the track that had intake headers and exhaust.
But now I can boost 8 psi, intercooled and with a new clutch. I will let you guys know when I go to the track again.

I'm hitting the track this Friday as well.. I'll let you all know what comes of it. I'm going there to run on .65bar, open exahust.. low 14's I hope ;)
wait, I think that I can do the math:
1 bar = 14.7 psi so...
.68 bar = ?
it's a simple proportion soo
1 x ? = 14.7 x .68
divide over the 1 and:
? = 9.996
:eek: your pushing 10 pounds!! you should easily hit low 14's if not 13's. I ran 15.2 with 5.5 psi non-intercooled. What do you have done internally and what do you have for engine management?
thanks, and good luck,
aj

Bone stock ;) I already ran a 15.5 on 3psi, so I'm being conservative when I say i'm looking for low 14's (in reality, I'd like to see a 13.8-13.9) that way it'll be easier on me if I don't get what I want..

Hey VTC_CiVic how much lbs are you planning to boost to get 13.8-13.9????? I think we have a similar setup. It would be great if i can go that fast. I think im runnin in the high 14's right now boosting 7lbs. But i don't have an intercooler and my clutch is slippin like crazy.
