I got a D16Y7 and would like to do a mini-me swap and get the head milled, ported and polished. My car has 110 HP (estimate) as of now.

When im done with the mini-me swap after milling, porting and polishing how much HP can I expect my car to have? My car is stock only thing I got is a K&N air filter.

Thanks

 

125 at the crank. 105-110 at the wheels.

 

wow i was expecting more than that...

 

you're sitting on about 90-95hp right now at the wheels. a 15-20 gain at the wheels will feel like a lot.

 

will I/H/E open up that power more or will it only increase it as much as it normally does?

and thanks for the quick response and the info.

 

normally does, because you are just converting your motor to a Y8... you wont be faster than a reguler y8.

 

alright thanks for the info

 

i know the y8 is a pretty low on power engine, but i test drove a 98 lx before i got my ex, and there is a very noticable difference between the two. I think you'll be happy.

 

Actually you are wrong in a sense. The LX/DX/so on and so forth are lightter cars and that makes them faster

 

and doesn't a mini me normally have a higher CR which in turn yeild a higher HP(or is this just in d15 engines; i.e. d15b7/b2)? so with a lighter car, more hp and possibly torque......should out run a d16z6 or d16y8.

and the hp should be around 15-20 more and with these small cars, it will be felt when pressing down on the gas.
