Went out last night for a drive and saw a mate from college. I left college over a year ago. He brought his civic when we were at college and he has carried on modding it over the last year.
It is a N reg Honda Civic 1.6 VTEC in Black
Maifold, backbox, induction kit
Short ratio gearbox,
145Db stereo,
17s lowered on 40mm springs (standard shox )
De-locked dehandled doors, big spoiler, vented wings,
green neons
Lots of Jap sticker Yoyo stylee
He was saying how fast it is and how it could sweep all of us up. Takes the piss out of my 'little corsa' which I'm not bothered about coz I love it!
I ask him top prove how fast it is and he pulls out a slip from santa pod.
1/4 mile in 16.87 
Roll on the 2.0 16V I'm a bad mutherfucka, proper Bo!

The thing is this guy is so full of himself its unbelievable. He was boasting about doing 80mph in a 30mph zone past a speed camera.

i raced my mates civic 1.5 lsi. 90bhp. same as the corsa sport 1.4 16v i had. he won by quite a distance.
i thought it would be even as his car is sohc and mine was dohc. and its not coz im a crap driver, im as good as him if not better.
mine was standard tho, on 15s. his was on 17s but he had induction kit.
civics r pretty good

yours would defo be slower especially since he is running 17's  you with your 15's. Bigger wheels slow cars down
