...you obviously didn't build them for shit, assuming you're saying 13.1 in the 1/8th...a built n/a b18c can run in the 14's in the 1/4...
He means 1/4. Which is about right. Most cars don't fall into the glory run category that people like to quote on the internet. Most stock LS1 F-bodies don't run 12's out of the box. They run 13.2-13.4. There are plenty that have run 12.80's and 12.90's but that isn't the norm.
One local guy had a white EG hatch with a stock B18 on 13psi. With slicks and the passenger/rear seats out it went 13.0@ like 112. It is the fastest honda that ever comes out. Well, it was. He blew it up and bought a GT40R67 turbo to put on it after he forges it. He's a fucking idiot and didn't realize that a GT40R67 is a 67mm turbo. The car is sitting in his garage because it needs a shit load of motor work before it can spool a 67mm turbo.
The same car ran like 14.0 or 14.1 with a B16 and a 40 shot. A fucking 40 shot of nitrous blew that car up. You would barely feel a 40 shot in a domestic. Pathetic.
