get a real intercooler, i rather run no intercooler than using a radiator. Even though this place is all about ghetto-fab stuff, but there is a line between ghetto and pure trash. Your radiator/intercooler is pure trash.

94 sedan has a few pounds on a 94 hatch ya know.
2 extra doors. 2 extra windows. two extra seatbelts (the metal areas surrounding them are sturdy don't forget)
I bet all in all you have 500lbs more then him.
Was his car stripped? yours? tires? maybe you aren't as good as a driver as you think you are? LOTS of factors.
if he runs 13.7s you're probably mid 14's which is respectable with your setup.

Re:i am sad about my setup. what i have to work on?
a friend of mines had a B20/VTEC motor in 92 civic hatch.
(B16A head, dual spring retainers, with CTR cams, JE 84mm 11:1 pistons, blue printed/balanced bottom end, JDM ITR 4-1 header, ITR intake manifold, block guard, chipped P-28, 2.75' cat back exhaust)and he ran 13.3, with a better driver the car ran 12.8 1/4 mile, fully stripped interior.
and when people ask what he had, all he would say is, (stock B16A head, stock B20Z block) and the motor looks really stock from honda.
my point is, maybe that car has a fully built motor.
