Okay just hear me out on this one.. I was flipping through the October 2001 of Sports Compact Car mag.. and I was reading through the TechProject(which was a 2001 Ford Focus) and with FocusSport Race Headers, AEM intake, 1320 Exhaust with Catalyst, Unorthodox Pulley, Focussport Cam gears, and Flywheel it only Dynoed at 136hp & 132 LB-Torque thats only 6hp gain from the stock 130HP! And DC Sport Dynoed our cars with Just Header, Intake, and exhaust at 5HP gain.. Kinda makes you think.. Maybe our cars don't have as much potential as the older gen. Civic Engines but they still have potential!

Hmm..It is hard to say. You can't compare results between two totally different cars. Our vics are hurting because they are breathing good straight from the factory. Yea, there is potential, but you wallet determines the extent of that potential.

The 136 hp dyno. was measured at the wheel. In stock form, it's around 110 at the wheel, just like our civics, so the gain was actually around 15 horses.
