lt1 z28 vs. 2004 civic ex
ok gf got a 2004 honda civic and i'm impressed. I love driving the thing, it feels tight suspension wise and its peppy with it 5 speed. i was wanting to know what it would take to get it around the same 1/4 time as my camaro. i hav't been to the track since 2001 but then i ran 13.2 of course that was 4 years ago. is turbo the best route on a civic? price range for this time 3,500? What drivetrain problems would i run into

there is no easy way.... any path you choose will cost $$ and take a lot of time and effort. To break into the low 13's as stated above, is engine swap with turbo.

And yes to go low 13's it will take some motor work and either a big shot of N20 or a Turbo.

Theres lots of turbo kits for V-8's. I can't think of any right now that come stock like that from the factory though. Look at like Lingenfelter corvette's or Hennessey Vipers. They have twin turbo kits for those engines.
Jesus christ, go upstairs out of your f*cking basement and tell you mom what you did for your 31st b-day, instead of loosing your virginity, you went to a civic website and looked like an ***.
Did i ever pretended to be a ninja? NO. Did you come from other site that your so insecure about yourselves that you and a whole bunch of you idiot friends had to come to another site that you hate; yet cant stop coming back to to get banned? Yes.
**** you
