How much HP gain from CAI & Exhaust??
G@y question, but just curious anyway......... I know its not like 20-40 hp like what the dealer says, but hopefully its not just 1 hp either, also i know civic's are hard to tune since they are tuned so well stock already but just wondering anyways

Rep Power: 337 less than 4 HP. AEM did a test on a 2k1, put CAI, headers, and exaust on a 2k1, got 5 HP out of the deal.
our cars are just not modable for more power through I/H/E. spend your money elsewhere.

Rep Power: 0 Someone here with DC Headers AEM CAI, and DC TCS dynoe'd 13 horsepower but a slight loss in torque..with an I/H/E combo.. depending on the combo it could be from 5-15hp.. mostly likely in the 8hp range.

Rep Power: 0 It all depends on the combo of parts. Everyone refers to the dc stuff only making 5hp and conclude that all part combinations will achieve the same. Outright ingnorance. Anyhow, 8-10 would be reasonable and that is a pretty good increase percentage wise. Our cars are very light and little gains will make a difference. It's not like you are adding 8hp to a 450hp viper or something.

Rep Power: 0 << MBOW,
Dude your trippin
LOOK AT DC's OWN DYNO!!!
with their DAC/HEADER/TCS total of 5 hp on a 2001 EX MANUAL
>>Ignorance, it is a terrible thing. That is with DC'S BOLT-ONS "ONLY." Import Tuner saw a 6hp gain from a hayame intake and I think the tcs exhaust and the STOCK header and cat. This basically tells you that dc isn't the greatest at increasing performance, at least for our cars.
