I dont see why everyone is flaming, thats so ignorant. I think he put up decent #'s for what he has. and modifiying a civic isnt retarded, its enjoying a hobby, whoever said that should be shot. Its amazing to me that some people cant let other bask in their own glory. So 127 or what he did isnt alot....someones always faster and better, let him have his moment and back the f- off.....Im sorry he doesnt have enough money to boost like all you boost turds that dyno an astounding 190hp(sarcastic comment). Im running nitrous hitting 190, safely might I add.

I think these are great #'s with the mods you have, let your car look how you want, and perform to your expectations.

I dont recall my car ever looking like that. Everything I have on my car, is all ive ever had on my car. A wing, altezzas, decals, stickers etc.. have NEVER touched my car. Shut your trap if you dont know what you're talking about.

People asked for proof, and he posted it. I think we should give him credit until proven otherwise. Some people just won't believe it no matter what kind of proof you have. Thats the funny thing about people, even if it seems logical, people still wont believe it. As for the the looks of the car? Looks are subjective and it his car so let him do whatever he wants with it. Props on the dyno.

Nice gains.

Id like to see your smartass make 10hp off of I/H/E.

 
Rep Power: 305

I guess the only down side is that the flywheel doesn't keep mometum like the heavy stock flywheel. So you probably have to downshift if your revs drop low in daily driving situations. Hmmmmmmmmm, I really like the gains best gains from bolt ons I've ever heard of. I'm surpirsed the car runs smooth and nice I figured a lightened flywheel was for strictly for racing. Why the performance clutch, what is its function in all this?

Guys Guys, don't start a war here I just wanted to post my dyno results. I went to Garage Kwai (847) 259-6960 because they have good deals and they mostly work on hondas, acuras and nissans. I was really surprised with the results myself, i have never thought that my friends si which is 160hp stock to the crank is putting out 137whp after the same mods i have(exc. flywheel). I was curious what can my car put out. And plus I have a t3 sitting in my garage waiting for my next couple of checks, so basically i wanted to see how much difference will there be after boosting. Thanks to all of you for great feedback.

Garage quai is awesome. I'm going again to get some pulleys installed and more tuning next year. I'm only at 100whp with my auto and port work tho

So is the performance clutch needed since you mind need to feather it more at the begining before you get your car rolling so you don't stall it? I guess once you get it going there is no problem and you can just rip it.

 
Rep Power: 281

The good thing is I can do pro launches. Where they rev it up to like 5k or 6k rpm and burn the clutch a bit but the wheels grab the pavement and they go. Of course my car isn't a race car, never was and never will be, but i have that advantage over stock ex and stock si.

Gearbox don't worry I bet you can get it up higher, but i was really surprised that your pnp didn't help that much.

125 at the wheels? Not bad for bolt ons.

 
Rep Power: 528

Don't me. I've never heard of a "front mount intake" before.

 
Rep Power: 528

Hey, why do they do dynos with the hood open? That's not realistic driving conditions. That's allowing too much cooler air to circulate in and possibly giving too high of numbers.

Actually, once I saw an article called "how to get 20hp from a cold air intake" and they showed a pic of the dyno and they had mounted the intake upside down so instead of going down to the bumper it went up 3 feet into the air! The hood was open. This intake was sucking air from 3ft above the open hood. That's completely not realistic driving conditions. wtf?

 
Rep Power: 812

Hahaha pwned by a hot chick. Wouldn't that front mount intake be better for cool air?

 
Rep Power: 812

They leave the hood open to better match real world conditions actually. If you think about it, your car is revving up to 6k rpms and just sitting there, when in real life you'd be going fast and have wind circulation.

thats cool!!!!! I have the same mods (+ engine mount inserts) and that is close to what I would guess my car is getting. What type of dyno did you run it on???

 
Rep Power: 0

So you think that his friend will automatically own him with 10 more hp??? That is a really bold statement. I say with that little bit of difference it all comes down to the driver. Even 25 30 hp and it is still a drivers game

 
Rep Power: 339

well.. you got that much torque cause it displaces more than a b16.. but less than a b18.. you are right in the middle of those...

but nice numbers... got a parts list?

 
Rep Power: 363

hm. 25-30 hp ... I wouldn't go -that- far ;P ... 10 hp and maybe 15 hp is a driver's race.

20 hp is the diff. between k20a2 and k20a ... not quite a driver's race there ;P

DOHC i-vtec > SOHC vtec, it's that simply. Have the 2 run and video tape it (dig and roll) im a 100% sure the ex will get OWNED.

Also ive seen a ex with i/h/e run an sI with intake and he got owned, it wasnt even close. They raced twice from a dig.

 
Rep Power: 0

DOHC to SOHC is irrelevant it is the #s that matter. So you would give me 100 to 1 odds if I ran a Si and won (as in I bet 10 if I win I get 1000). That is what you are saying 10 hp is nothing that a bad launch vs. a good launch or a missed gear can't take care of. When racing nothing is a given and anything can happen and before you know it you lost

^^^ you know what is irrelevant...

i-vtec > vtec... trust.

 
Rep Power: 363

ep3 Si's don't have true vtec/ivtec

and yes, it is true ... only the numbers matter. an ex with i/h/e/no cat/gutted would be close with an Si with an intake ... driver's race

here I found this a second ago I hope it works. This kid is braging about running 15.9 with his 2000 Si. there are a few guys on this site runing better with bone stock civics my point it is a compleate drivers race .

 
Rep Power: 0

And if you were talking about a new Si vs a civic the 2000 Si weighs about 200lbs. less with the same hp from the crank than a newer Si so do the math .

 
Rep Power: 302

that's what i was thinking as well. wouldn't that be needed for more HP applications like turbo?

 
Rep Power: 281

As i said before a t3 is sitting at my garage waiting, and besides i was replacing my tranny so I mind as well replace the clutch and the flywheel. Kind of killing two birds with one stone . Cost to put in flywheel and clutch=$250 Cost to put in flywheel and cluth with the tranny off=$30. So do the math. Oh and besides i got a very good deal on the fly/clutch combo. paid $540 for both

Yes, sI arent super fast cars, there are high 15sec cars (some mid 15's), but a ex isnt a super fast car either and stock vs stock its not even remotely as fast as an sI. Even a slightly modded ex will not take a stock sI. Also, once again... i-vtec > vtec, i dont car if its i-vtec on the sI isnt true i-vtec, the vtec on the ex isnt even truer (if thats a word, lol) then i-vtec on the sI. Vtec on the ex is for green world reason, ie: it should be called gas vtec, because its not even performance close to the sI, type-s or even s2000 i-vtec/vtec system.

 
Rep Power: 363

the Si's vtec is similar to that of the ex's vtec. the only difference is that the intake cam has vtc.

I'm not arguing that the ex's engine is better ... it's worse. If you are arguing that ivtec > vtec, then how about running a 2002+ Si vs. an 01 Prelude ... Si loses. Like stated above, only the numbers matter.

Wow, you're an idiot. I can't even believe you're comparing a d17 to an s2k. Where to begin?

those cars that you listed, namely the Si, type S and s2k are for higher performance. are you forgetting something? they're all dohc, idiot. I don't even know why you're comparing vtec systems ... VTEC IS NOT TURBO BUDDY. vtec is a simple system of valve timing in which its purpose is engine efficiency, not a performance feature. I don't even know why the **** you said "because its not even performance close to the (etc)".

the reason for the vtec "kick" is up to a certain rpm, the engine is to be fuel efficient, but then have the power available to kick in when needed. Honda COULD'VE made F, B, H, K, C, etc series engines have a smooth powerband and valve timing changeover (which would have been optimal for power), but they wanted a nice fuel efficient car that runs at an efficient rpm on the highway and such.

OMFG you are stupid I would like to take you and . I posted that to give you an Idea of what a stock 2000 Si 1/4 is. This kid ran 15.9 STOCK (I am sure that it was not a great run) there are people on this site running better times with STOCK ex civics and they have the slips to prove it. SO if you compare a good 1/4 in a ex to a bad in an Si the ex wins my point is that his ex vs his budies Si it is whoever is the better driver. I don't know why it is so hard for you to believe
