stock no. But I have seen more potential out of b16a's than b18's. Plus b18 have this weird issue with the sleeves cracking.

well its not for sure cuz we dont know what that d15 has cuz we got the car from a guy that bought it from an undercover police officer with 35,000 miles and the engine does not sound stock. it has a deep sound to it and when we turn it off it makes a hissing sound even without the intake.

it could be a number of things.. were you on a slope at all? how old is the air filter/ oil. its just depends. most likely it doesnt have anything to with engine performance unless its hard to get to 110 and it feels like its stressing to get there.

it could just be age. um maybe it wasnt getting good air flow that day maybe it was hotter outside that when you dad did it.. a bunch of small things can affect top end speed.. it shouldnt be anything to worry about unless it starts taking forever to break 100 or if it stops breaking 100
