Yeah, but your point still doesnt make any sense. Because the fastest honda in the world is running a B-series, that means we should all run one, regardless of out power goals, budget, or use of the car? Just because the fastest honda drag car out there has a B18C doesnt mean that it's the best motor for everyone. A 1200hp B18 would be a bitch to drive on the street, dont you think? For reliability, performance, and price- the K-Series is the best option for a street car that plans to stay NA. You wont make as much power as a K-Series for the price without a turbo, and even if you do- it wont be nearly as reliable. A BUILT B-Series makes around the same as a K with mild mods. The K will always be on top for reliability.

I just did a quick search and....

Reads:
The impressive engine used to power the World’s Fastest Honda Civic was a turbocharged B18C built by Killer Bee Racing. Though the engine has produced as much as 728 hp at 29 psi of boost, the boost was run at only 13-14 psi for the record runs.

BUT: I do remember reading about Stephanie's car...

Bottom line here BOTH cars share one thing.... B18C1

Any way's how hard would the above setup be to get into my car? My cousin has the same car and is looking for a gsr block or and itr block just bare block to start.. I still haven't decided on what block to use as the base. But I want to stay N/A and 5K doesn't sound bad. Both of our cars will be built from Block up...

Of course it setup will fit into a 92 hatch, it's arguably the easiest civic to put this motor into. It's basically a high compression ITR motor swap (ITR motor with CTR pistons + cams). I was going to run this on the street with 94 octane until I found a turbo to play with.
