'92-'95 Civic Si Hatchback with F20C?
On my way home from dropping off a friend I noticed a '92-'95 Civic Si Hatchback. I'm just driving by and he starts to rev his engine some. I decide to play a little and we take off at around 50 and he takes me out. <My top was down> He didn't beat me by much but beat me nonetheless. I asked what was in it and he said an S2000 engine. I thought, "No way!" He gives me an offended look and assures me that it is. Wish I got to look at it. Doesn't seem cost efficient to me though.
P.S. Oh btw, he works at the dealership I bought mine from. I think he's a mechanic.

He was bullshitting.
If he did do a swap, which I HIGHLY doubt, then he did a really bad job of swapping it since you beat him.
I'm just guessing he had a b16a or b18c1 (gsr) or maybe even a B20z.
The fastest b16 I've seen is in a CRX which runs mid-high 13s.
Now, if you run into anyone with a CTR or ITR, then that should really give you a run for your money. I haven't seen anyone with an ITR motor though.

Two ways this could happen...
1) He converted to RWD
or
2) he invented a FWD tranny for the engine
1 in more probably then 2.
