when i was atching the vid .. didnt seem like the car was "strip down to the Max". that's what got me thinkin that civic couldn't do 13s to be the evo bc the evo does 13s. and it doesnt seem like they were going over 100+ for the k20 to be more efficient since it operate best in the higher rpm unlike the evo. i dont know .. i think that vid is

regardless, i still think the hatch can do 13's easily, once again i will go to the fact that my friend who has a full interior, still managed a 13.8 quarter mile time in his b18c powered eg hatch.
so it seems more than likely that this eg with a k20 would be able to do the same.

For the non-believers, do you or have you guys ever driven/sat in an EG with a K20 or B18C5 or B20 VTEC??? If not then please don't make assumtions.

Either way, it's a trailer video. Maybe the Evo wasn't pushing as hard.. maybe it was? In my opinion it wasn't pushing as hard as it could have been, probably the dramatize the civics speed. In any case it's a trailer to get everyone interested in what "hybrid-racing" is all about, and I'm sure you guys can't wait to see them actually race on a strip side by side in their full version.
Everyone tells me a b18 swap on a stripped hatchback is crazy, I can believe it... but against a Evo running 22 Psi of boost??? I'd just like to see it race against that turboed NSX

btw, frankenstein swap refers to matting a b series LS block w/ a vtec head
or taking any non-vtec block and putting a vtec head on it
I've got a buddy out here doing CRAZY shit w/ k-series motors, he's had a few cars he's built motors for written up in a few mags. He did that hatch w/ the turbo'd k20 that was Hasports car that was on the cover of SCC a few months back.
watch for this name soon, he's blowin up www.streetimage.com
all this k-series shit makes me regreat getting a b16b

The Civic ISNT stock, the engine is hooked up. Go to www.hybrid-racing.com and look at the other video's they show the eninge. It is hooked up, the car is light, it has a carbon fiber hood, no back seats, and other stuff, now no more fighting.
BTW if you were wondering what engine it has, its a Type-S engine.
