The b18c1 is rated for 178 HP stock, so to put 190 hp to the wheels (if that's what he said) would take some work, but its definitely doable.

Re: Engine

Does he have dyno numbers to back up his claim, or is he just adding the HP gains off the boxes of parts he installed. .... in all reality we're only talking 12 HP or so, you can get that from IHE easy.
