hotrodcivic2004 should not be trusted
well its got 155 horse and 160 trq i believe.1. i would say its age and wear caught up to it to give you a chance.2. might not have been racing, might have just been 'driving aggresive'... 3. might have been an auto to assuming you r manual. doesnt matter... a kill is a kill.

Actually, the most common swap is the SR20 (regardless of colour of the top...) which is a smaller engine, displacement wise than the stock KA24, its the turbo that makes all the goodness from smaller size. There has been the odd RB series swap, but most everyone agrees that those take too much work and fabrication for the results they yield...

KA24 twin cam or single cam arent fast....... very possible that you raced an auto, plus those cars have no top end..... but very torquey......... good kill though.... 4 car lengths is....... a lot.
