I gotta 98 civic dx d16y7. I have the full Megan exhaust. (header, test pipe, catback) My next mod will be the full mini me swap with the y8 intake manifold, y8 throttle body and a aem sri. Just looking for an estimation on hp gains from the mini me, IM, TB, and SRI. Thanks for any help.

assuming you wire up VTEC, probably around 25hp

Really? Everyone was sayin at least 20hp for the mini me, then i was thinkin about 5hp from the sri, and maybe 10 from the y8 TB and IM. So I guess 35hp is to unrealistic?

well your engine stock is 106hp. the y8 is 127hp. Therefore, from the mini-me/TB/IM you should get around that 21hp difference. (Think about it, the regular y8 already has the TB/IM, so out of all that, you're only going to gain the difference from the two motors) You might gain 4hp absolute max from the SRI.

35hp is unrealistic
