I dont have the money to go get the to the dyno so I was wondering if someone had an approximation on what kind of horsepower I would have at the wheels. My car is a 96 civic ex coupe with the D16y8 bored .30 over. I have an Air Raid cold air kit, 1" throttle body spacer, 4-2-1 header and a high flow cat. Does anyone have a good guess to what kind of hp i would see?

 

Stock pistons that are over bored .30 over, correct?

So you have an intake, a 1'' paper weight (TB spacer do nothing), header and a test pipe.

~115whp at the most.

 

^no, that's BHP

 

That's definitely not what's getting to the wheels. I think at least 30% is lost in shuffle when getting the power to the ground.

 

^know's his stuff believe him

 

^^ Why? A b18b teg has 140 hp/120-something tq. in stock form. Only like 115hp at most is getting to those wheels. and it haz no VTAK yo. However, a B18b has greater potential than a D series I guess you could say.
