So i dont normaly post... ever haha.... but i need your guys help on this one. I drive a standard 5s-fe celica with intake, cat-back, plugs wires, and stage 2 clutch. Now how might that stand against a fairly stock DOHC Vtec CRX? I dont have alot of experience against Vtec's so i must ask.. Im fairly sure my engine wont hold up that well of a fight but i would like to make sure... I bet im leaving alot of important information out of this but yeah... just some advice thats all. Thanks...

Ummm... you'll get smacked bad. I don't even know why it would even be in question... FYI: The CRX's NEVER came stock with a DOHC Vtec motor (not in the US at least), which is most likely a B16A. It's gotta be a swap. Anyways... they DON'T NEED TORQUE. Torque is a pointless argument for those who at least want to compare something the Celica does have to something the B16A or Honda motors in general... do Not. It's a pointless argument... why? cause Honda trannies are geared REALLY short... they fly through their low-end band like nothing and will PULL CONSTANTLY in the high-end... so their overall torque band is not even used that much in a race situtation. A B16A swapped CRX is almost a GURANTEED 14 second car... so you'll be beat, bad. Very very bad. WHy do I know... because we at Thao's Smog and Automotive recently put together a B16A powered 95 Civic coupe... which weighs in the 2300-2400 pound neighborhood... and that sucker pulls like mad. It has not been tracked yet, but it can put 3 cars EASY on my MR2... which is a high-15 second car...
