who would win?

would a 98 dodge neon 2.0 R/T manual, superchaged with a 50 shot of nitrous be faster than a 91 civic dx B16A swap with I/H/E and some other small misc shit in a 1/4 mile?

yea I figured. so much for wishful thinking.

see there's a story behind the question. My cousin gets babied by my gramps. So he buys him a neon then a SC and then a nitrous kit for his ride. I wouldn't ask for anything because I do ok on my own (slowly progressing) but it just pisses me off he gets all this stuff plus motor work and now he's faster and didn't even work for it. o well when I get my internals built, nitrous and everything I should smoke it right?

Even if he writes it all out there is no garuntee by paper. Driving skill has alot to do with it. But i guess your right it could give you a pretty good idea.

1/4 mile he would probably win. If you guys would race from a rolling start, you could win.

Acutally, you might even have a chance on the 1/4 mile.. I spent a weekend fooling around in an 89 SI with a b16a, and man that thing moved. Off the line it isnt that hot, but I was dumping at around 4.5K.. And it did ok.

I noticed you have a strong clutch, so if you launch hard enough, you really might win.

I don't know a ton about these motors, but I don't think the civic would have a chance in hell... depending on what hp the neon started with, a s/c adds typically 35-45% plus add a 50 shot of hp from the nitrous. What does that come to? What do neons have to start with?

neons are rated for 150hp stock. If it was a stock race i'd blow him out of the water .. I think if he doesn't spary i'd have a damn good chance.

Well depending on the type of s/c on the neon, he could have anywhere between 200-225hp before using nitrous. What is the factory rated hp on your motor stock? What is it with your modifications?

there is no way a stock b16in any honda is going to beat a s/c neon. he wont even have to use the nitrous.

o we will race i'm sure... probably late this summer possibly next summer.

by the time this summer ends i'll have my jdm conversion, all my fuel setup, port/polished head, possibly some internal motor work, lightened flywheel and some nice light rims. so I imagin i'll win.
