It was only an ammount of time before someone tried it...but your post is pointless without any pics. But ...it's not a toyota anymore.

you have no idea how many civics a have smoked.... you must not drive an xb or you must have a stock automatic xb loaded down with speakers... i have even smoked a trunk model civic si with I/H/E and all i have was Intake and lightened crank pulley... like i discussed last night with some of my friends, it has a lot to do with the driver. matter of fact i have even smoked my friends 01 V6 accord.

i like your car Boxer and i do respect your thoughts but i cannot level with you on this one.

Exactly. I'd say it has everything to do with driver in these cases. A stock B16-powered Civci Si will do 15s in the 1320. An xB runs 17s (intake or not).

Whoa, don't get all fast and furious on me... just comparing engines, not drivers

I'm sure everyone knows the limitations of our engines, and that Honda 1.5's can get double or even triple the stock HP fairly easy. That's all I'm saying.

No I do not plan on winning.

My xb was set up for show last summer, now it is set up to do some killin!

I'm only showing cause my sponsor is paying my way, he is now fabricating mounts, axels, and shift linkage for this swap.

Yes there are ton of pics out there.

However, I have not taken any myself, I just got back from a trip to New York,

You are right this thread is useless without pics, I am working on getting some myself.

And for all of the people who gave me props Thanks

and for all the rest, I guess you'll be first in line to get your ___ handed to you. HAHA

Pics are on the way. I have no scanner, but pics are in my possesion. Yeah most of us here in Indy are still living pre digi cameras. Mine however is broke.

There needs to be a rule that threads like these should automatically be locked unless the author can provide proof of the threads contents before posting claims.

If you did complete this swap, congrats on having an unregisterable car now. Dont let the cops catch you with that motor in the car on the streets, it will be impounded if your state laws are anything like they are here.

Well said there is no way the xb is gonna beat a v6 or a honda i dont care how good the driver is. Like you all say no pics or video, it is not believeable sorry.
