A friend of mine's been blabbing about how he's gonna build himself a 10sec honda for $7000

1st I would gut my crx out to about 1600 lbs.

B18 4 cylinder with tranny $3,000.00 E-bay used
Flat top Integra pistons $300.00 E-bay
2 aggresive cams $500.00
4 throttle body induction $1,200.00
4 to 1 long tube header $500.00
Timing gears $250.00
slicks $300.00
255 LPH fuel pump $100.00
70 shot of Nitrous $500.00
_____________
$ 6,650.00

Considering you did all the work your self the engine could be set-up tp run 10's for 7,000.00.

By the time you got a roll cage welded in and al;l the suspension work you would need you are looking at 10,000 minimum.
