Okay, I gotta say something. I own a Civic. I'm about to buy a MP5. I can respect when someone dislikes one brand vs. another. But seriously pasta323, think about it. With the mods you've got. You should be able to toast a helluva lot more than just 90% of the Civics out there. Why don't you spread the wealth and start smoking other cars? sniff-sniff... can't we just all get along?
What's a "helluva"?

hmm I should save up for a turbo kit hmmm

would boost me to
@ 6 psi
172+ hp
185+ lbs/ft

hmm that would be sweet, and if i can get it to pass emissions tests at 6 psi that would be really sweet...and if 8psi, damn

hmm thats diefinately gonna be my first mod lol

and once i get it all i gotta say to all the civics in my area
"JUST BRING IT"

then I'd put a civic killer sticker on my car

edit: but damn those won't be # for @the wheels, they will be at the crank i geuss...but oh well...geuss I'll just get a new transmission and hit up 16psi hehe

@wheels

Actually those numbers are measured on the wheel!!!!!

STOCK #'s on the Wheel (base model with 130bhp/135lb):

96.4 WHP
108.3 Torque on the wheels



TURBO @ 6psi of boost

149.1 WHP
173.1 Torque on the Wheels

So...more or less, the bhp of the car with the turbo is 173 hp and 200 lb of torque!!!!
like you said

Add an Exhaust = 10 WHP gain
Add the mp3 ECU = 6 WHP gain
Change piping (using the ES model pipe) = 5 WHP gain???

no i meant my current number aren't at the wheel....so I dunno.....my current numbers are at the crank...but then adding the 50 and 65 for tourque would be safe no matter what.....especially at 16 psi lol
