Right but the B16 is in what Civic exactly? The EG, even the EK, are sooo much lighter than a GTI6 for a start. Give them the same powaah and it's obvious what the result will be.
And I know for a fact that an EP9 breadvan is faster than a GTI6. Doesn't matter which way you want to argue it, they pull away from the 306. Not easily, but they do.
Unfortunately people need to realise that CTR's are generally the quickest hot hatches of their era. The GTI6 was the fastest because when it came out it only had the Tomswankbank Mk4 GTI, the Fiat uglysomethingorother and..well.. that's as competitive as it got. The GTi6 was soon outdated despite being a class leader in it's early days.
