it comes in at 127hp out of the factory... 15 years of use will wear that down a little. so with that being said it does not really answer your question i guess. you can add header back exhaust, CAI or ram intake, ecu, nos, and more, that will boost your hp moderately but not as much as a turbo. it all depends on what parts you run, i wouldn't expect to get over 200 without some kind of turbo or nos.

 

Without nitrous (not NOS - that is a company), or boosting, you are not looking at more than 160whp, and that is with thousands of dollars invested building the motor.

With a D series, you either boost, or swap for power.

 

If you wanted to look at boosting, I do recall there being an 800 HP D16 out there...

The amount of power you can squeeze out of an engine is directly proportional to the amount of money in your bank account + the amount of free time you have.
