Our XBs are not quick or fast and watching them race is rather pathetic.

A car that runs under 12.5 is fast..
If someone pulls up to an xB and that xB does a 1/4 mile in less than 14, they should be pretty suprised.. these cars arent meant to go fast.. Then again, a CRX isnt meant to go fast either and with an H22, youll be in mid 12..

What size of turbo is that??Is there any internal work?Is that turbo a "kit" and if so how much$?Is there that much potential for the XB?Yes, I realize it is the same motor as the Tc, afterall.

With the 3076r you should definitely be able to get mid to high 400's.... and if you're trying to break into the 11's I am pretty confident that you'd need 500 whp and ditch them street tires. Either way you should be real close.... you're well on your way with all the right supporting mods. Please post vids when you can! I never understood why people were trying to turn their xB's into fast cars but hey..... I guess we all have our joys.

It's not about making the xB fast, but making it faster.
Also, most dragstrips run Bracket or E.T. racing. You don't have to be the fastest car out there, they will handicap things. My Gen 1 xB was the slowest car on the track when I went. Even the Prius beat me by half a car-length. But once they get to the bracket racing, I was competitive. Nothing's more fun than getting a few second headstart and trying to beat them to the finish line. Took 3rd place out of about 20 cars, beating an Evo, an Acura and a Mustang, then losing to a '70 Nova. My best time of the day? 17.95. Well technically, the best time was making 18 1/4 mile runs in one day! If you ever get the chance, go for it. BTW, the winner that day was some guy in a GMC pickup, looked stock and kinda beat.
