my 92 accord ex f22a6 5spd ran the quarter mile in 17.9 @ 77 mph. my car is stock with the exception of a $31 ebay intake. but i have a lot of parts coming in this week and next so maybe i can drop down into the 16's. (headers, catback system, msd sci ignition box, msd blaster ss coil, obx race wires, ngk iridium plugs, grounding kit, UR ultra ss pulley set, short shifter, h23 intake manifold and throttle body) think i can get 16's with this? next thing im saving for is some head and cam work.

My friend ran a 16.6 with nothing but an exhaust on a 92 LX (F22A1). With an AEM SR and Ebay cheapo header he ran a 16.3.
The ignition and grounding parts really won't do that much for you just yet. They're basically "supplemental" mods, useful for supporting major modificaition. They're not bad, but don't believe it when you see a grounding kit gives you 8hp! You MIGHT recover 2 lost hp due to your old worn components. Good stuff to have in place when you do future mods though.
With a good header, a good catback (say DC Sports and Apex'i) and a little weight reduction, you might be able to break into the 15s.

Don't forget, altitude, temperature, and humidity all affect performance. A run at this time of year in NJ would be significantly better than a summer run in the mountains.
Anything could be affecting performance. Shifting too early, launchng too soft or hard, bad clutch (that's what's keeping me out of the 14s at the moment), lousy tires, too rich of a fuel mixture, restrictive exhaust, weak spark plugs and other ignition components, the weight of the driver (I'm 200lbs. Someone weighing 150lbs would have a slight advantage), atmospheric conditions, altitude, cylinder compression, valve timing (not all cams and valves are in the same state of tune from the factory, and 14 years only amplifies those differences!)
The list could go on and on...

I know there are a lot of factors that could affect someone's performance, and that was kind of my point. Either they need to practice their driving or make sure their engine is in better shape before racing it. It doesn't matter how many performance parts your slap on there if the engine isn't in good shape then it won't run well.

If you only hope for low 13s with a built H22 turbo, you'll find yourself pleasantly surprised
If you can afford a full build and a GOOD turbo setup, be sure to get properly tuned. Then get some stronger axles and a set of slicks. Look for 11s if you know how to drive. fast93accord has a built F22 turbo, and he's doing mid to low 12s now I believe... and still working on his tuning.
