Well i just picked my self up a new car after i returned my balt back to stock.
bought a
91 Civic hatch. With a b18a1 in it. Full exhaust and an intake.
My friend has a 07 cobalt SS/SC with a cat back.

Were racing tommorow for ***** and giggles. I think it will be close..and i have a few friends who think it will be too. One that had LS/SC balt.

CALL IT! Who is taking this one..Its going to happen tommorow.
Were doing one roll race(i think i have a amazing advantage hear..)
and one from a dig.

the ss/sc. i'm not saying that because i have one, but if the dude can drive the balt it will win. not by much, but it should win.

Which motor is the A1? I cant remember the diff between the b series motors!

the_rainmaker

b18a1 is an older gsr I think.

if it was a b18b you would lose
b18c1 maybe win
b18c5 win

The b18a1 is the old integra motor not gsr its 130bhp.

The b18b1 is the low end integra motor from 94 to 01 142bhp

The b18c1 is the gsr motor from 94 to 01 170bhp

The b18c5 is the type r motor from 94 to 01 195bhp

I don't thin you'll be able to pull of a win against the ss sc but if he can't drive who knows haha

If you had a b18c1 or c5 you would win tho.

Should be close, I raced my cousins '97 integra gsr with intake, header, cat-back exhaust, and short throw VS my ss/sc with only cai. we were right next to each other. Its a drivers race.

B17A1 is the 92-93 GSR engine. it was a 1.7L

well we raced tonight..i am swapping my stuff into my CRX tommorow...i launched WAY to high and burned all the way through 2nd..but stayed with him shifted to 3rd and took off..i guess he let off said his clutch was slipping?

so guess we dont count this

berto

the cobalt should win
I raced my buddies eg with the same motor when i had my old ss/sc
and i won

GreyDog72

cobalt all the way!

LsBro07

cobalt wins
I beat hondas like that in my 07 LS
their my specialty lol

B18a and b's dont make that much power(mostly hype). You have a 140ish bhp engine vs a 210+whp engine. A car thats 2500lb's vs 2900lbs. I know for a fact it takes more power then that to beat the cobalt.

^ on my motor once you either get vtec or a different intake manifold...these motors really open up..

the_rainmaker

Ignorant fool

they have more torque than the vtec variants, and throw a little boost on there, and you have a monster engine

yeah the intake manifold is very restrictive on the ls engines

eastcoastz

The SS\SC will win unless the driver sucks.

I'm not very impressed with Vtec. I've put about 4 b18's in peoples cars last few months, and have driven LS/vtec's and c1's. Even my completely gutted/obd1 converted 90 crx si with a z6, intake, and full exhaust feels slow. I was gonna convert it to RT-AWD using a 91 wagon, but joined the army.

Also any properly boosted motor will make power. I just think they are overrated in the honda community. That and I honestly believe because of how cheap the parts are, the honesty/integrity of the honda community is ****.

Preston

yeah just pulled the motor this weekend..gonna put it in my crx
and i am thinking of buying my friends blox intake manifold from him...any feed back?
