hp and torque question

i have a 2005 civic lx coupe with a custom turbo kit.
turbonetics turbo non bb w external waste gate
aem fic
intercooler
walbro fuel pump
injectors
2.5 inch exhaust with no cat and apexi muffler
competion clutch stage 4 6 puck sprung clutch
11 pound competion clutch flywheel
short shifter
18 inch rims with low pros
aem boost and a/f gauges

but i dynoed at 181 whp and 167 wtq at 9 psi. is that enough power or should i be making more. not sure if my tuner is getting every drop of power out. for all the money i put into forced induction i expected at least 220hp with my stock internals. plz i need some advice. yeah im new here but not to cars so if u have neg responses dont even reply. also what numbers should i expect at the 1\8 mile with this setup the way it is with 18 inch rims.

Re: hp and torque question

There is no way with that kind of modification you should be into the 200 range i am around 185 and i do not have that much into it. Hondata is the best i wouldn stick anything else on it.
