The problem with those swap is that the engine they swap in there are 10-12 years old! Some old crap first gen B16A1. Of course the shop who sell you the engine will tell you it got less then 30 000miles. But we all know thats bullsh!t!

If the swap is correctly done with all the parts it should have. A civic hatch 1990 with a Stock B16A1 should run high 14s, flat 15s!

If he swap a B18C1 ou a B16A2 (Civic Si 99-00) now thats another story. My friend with a stock B16A2 ran 14.38 in a 1992 civic cx!

My friend with a stock JDM H22A in a civic coupe ran 13.5 on slicks!

Civics with swap can be quick... if its done right!
