well if you are talking drag racing, and both cars are making 180whp. the b18c would most likely run a quicker time and the bpt would run a higher mph cause it is turbo.Fastest BP Powered Escort

yea man, that totally depends on what kind of course they are racing, what kind of cars, and drivers. In a 1/4 in an Integra Type R (i think thats what the b18c is in) and a mazda 323 GTX or GTR, Id have to say the mazda, lighter, awd for the holeshot. But again it totally depends on the factors of the race.Eat ****.

B18C could be any of the DOHC VTEC motors. B18C1 is the regular GSR motor. B18C5 is the ITR motor."Never run out of real estate, traction & ideas at the same time"

At my altitude I would definately pick the BPT. Playing catchup at 7200 ft in a n/a 4cyl sucks big time. I doubt there is much turbo lag on the vj20 or 23 turbo's they arent that big. Now if it was a T-88, that'd be a different story. My buddy has an rx7 with a t88 conversion, it dosent fully spool until like 5600rpm's.Eat ****.

If it was turbo vs nA and the car was a 323 or protege with front wheel drive.
I would pick the protege ... At the rating of 180 hp it will also have more torque than the B18 motor. I think the ability of the BP to pull off the line and hold any edge gained would help it win.
NA vs NA , would be a different story.

One thing you gotta look at too is, what kinda BPT are we talkin about? There's the GTX - 185hp, GTR - 210hp or a BP-T with any setup you want. True, a turbo car may have lag, but at nicely sized T3-T4 will give more than enough top end pull down the track. Then you have to look at the GTX, small turbo = fast spoolup....and the GTR which feels like a N/A BP until you hit about 3500-4000rpm, then it's like a lead weight is dropped from the car and it takes off in whatever direction the tires can grab.1991 Mazda 323 GTR Sedan
MODS:
GTR motor swap, F&R Familia strut bars, MX-3 Rear Lower strut tie bar, GTX front bumper, GTX grill, EDM headlights & corners, EDM 323 rear garnish, EDM spoiler, EGT sideskirts, MX-3 seats, GTX steering wheel, EGT glass sunroof, WRX hood scoop (functional!!), and other things that take too much space to list.....
TO DO LIST:

that's pretty good.
I don't know guys. I don't think a turbo BP and a N/A B18 (vtec motor) is a fair match. I think if we put a B18 up against a BP (N/A) with the same compression ratio and similar redline.. Even if we could tune the motor to get near the same hp as the B18 .. that would be a much better match.
I guess I am just figureing to keep things fair. You know there are those people that will say ,"ohh well he has a turbo so that's why he beat the teggy".
