...yea, phatty turbo on a nicely built strong engine: rods, low comp pistons (depending on car), sleeves, streghthen all those lil moving parts in the head: vlave springs, retainers, maybe some turbo cams, with a rev hard kit.


So 20k later you can have a car that runs as fast as a mustang that cost 6k...

I'm not saying you CAN'T drag race with a civic... I'm saying you're a money burning dumbass if you do... J/K. sortof.

It's FWD it's just not suited for drag racing... ALL the weight of your car gets dumped onto the rearwheels... why not take advantage of that and use a RWD car...

Hell if you want a fourbanger...

buy a turbo 4cyl mustang... or a AWD talon/eclipse (you can keep it that way or convert it to RWD) or a miata.. or a 240...

Drag cars that are FWD cost more for less fun at the strip.
