Impossible to tell without a dyno run or three. . .

But if I had to guess. . . I'd say you're probably at around 118-120 WHP.

Eh, I'm nobody. If I claim to know anything, it's usually because I do. I'm quite cautious about stating facts that I can't back-up. I'm just some dood in his early 30's with a teenage girlfriend and a hooked-up Civic.

Can you say midlife crisis?

I work evenings being at a workstation my whole shift. Doesn't hurt to learn a few things, and help everyone else learn a thing or two.

HEH, honestly I would be surprised if you had anything over 123whp
Our motors take mods like **** - I miss the old D-Series motors they handled mods a little better, doesn't madder though - I have a K20a sitting in my garage (JDM RSX-S).

CapYoda has a spectacular aura aboutCapYoda has a spectacular aura about
you wont break 120 whp with that. IMO

140? please.

5-10 hp tops. and I dont even know where in the powerband... and dont get me started with torque...

until you dyno, you wont ever know..

but dont be surprise when its the stock ~110 whp

thats for the ex 5spd.

lx/dx dynos for around ~100 hp, thats 5spd.

with an auto, some hp/torque are lost... around 5-7..

remember, dynos are variable, conditions such as temperature, altitude, dyno method... the very dyno the car is on... affects it...

no dynos are a like... and its honestly somewhat useless to compare two diff. cars from two diff. dynos... too much variable.

110 at the wheels stock?? I don't think so. The ex is 127 at the engine. I saw our cars in import tuner, while I can't fully trust their dyno they said it was 100 whp

if you have a 1/4 time you could always do a horsepower calculator check. our cars are like 2000 something lbs. although they arent exactly correct. i tried one and it said i had 160 hp at the crank. but i only think ive got around 135-140 or something like that.

just search on google or msn "horsepower calculator" and youll get a bunch of different ones. its basically a math problem where you enter in a few numbers and it determines your relitive horsepower at the crank.

and since theres no 1/4 track around me (we only have 1/8) i had to use my trap speed instead of my 1/4 ET. (which my highest was like 87) and it came out around 160 hp, which isnt right. so i just turned it down and im guessing mines around 130-145 somewhere in there.

heres my results. i had to estimate the 1/4 mile time since ive never run one that ive timed. the weight is pretty much correct though.

Your Honda Civic EX weighs about 2714 pounds and can complete a 1/4 mile in about 16.50 seconds. That means that you've got about 119.41 HP at the wheels, and about 155.23 HP at the flywheel.
