LOL brutal.

Some things I grab from eBay (cup holders, CD player harnesses, misc. small parts), and other things I save for reputable speed shops.

How can VTEC not have lag? What RPM does it kick in it?

I had a '99 SiR with a few NA mods (I know, WTF was I thinking?) and once it hit 5,300 RPM it was an entirely different car- still slow, but less slow.

I know my car has lag, before the CVtec kicks in, but it kicks in a 3500, not 9500.

Well trust me theres alot of NA civics that will smoke both your cars. Lag or no lag. But on a proper set-up, when you put the gears together you're always in vtec.

LOL I don't doubt that, but to get to sub 13.7 seconds in a NA civic costs a lot of money. For me to hit 12's is less than $2,000- what's it take to get a NA civic to hit 12's?

LOL what?!

Do you even tune cars?

What do you mean "what does it matter if it's NA or not?" Small displacement engines, such as the ones found in Honda's, are hard to make fast NA because it's hard to make power. Hence why I was asking you. I'm led to believe that you don't actually work with cars if that mystifies you...

ar790 man no offence but a boosted single cam vtec with vitara pistons a tuner toy rods on lets say 13 psi would do high 12's and the cost is roughly less then 2000$ and think the price of an mr2 like urs u can buy a k20 swapped eg...that would kill and run 12's with minor bolt 0ns and hence my point but thaks for trying..
