Don't forget that's recorded on an engine dyno that reads from the crank, not a chassis dyno that measures FWHP (front wheel HP, the actuall power at the wheels).

Stock will be about 100hp, and I/H/E adds about 30hp total.

Your engine code is D17A2. If you aren't extremely serious about power and are not willing to spend money stop at I/H/E. Our engine is very difficult to get power out of, many people swap a K20A engine in place, but if you are stubborn like me you'll want to prove that this engine can be capable of decent power. If you are serious about modding this engine, I strongly suggest DC Sports instead of Megan (not bashing Megan they make good stuff, but I believe DC Sports puts more into testing) and after you do your I/H/E, if you still want to go further consider new pistons(flat top; which will raise compression) and rods, get a fuel controller and then work on the top end (valvetrain, cam, cam gear). If you have any questions feel free to pm me.

^ oh yeah pwned that 30hp on this engine will really be only about 15hp, 20 tops.
