RE: Guess my horsepower please??

Man, I have to get a new engine, lol.
I want one of those nice DOHC stock JDM's that push almost 200hp, wish I had the cash for that.

"why did you build up a d15b? any reason?"
When I bought my 2000 Civic new in 2000, it was to have a good reliable car. I didn't know what a "tuner" was back then. Then as I slowly got into it, added intake, then exhaust, wheels and tires, then headers. I was in no positition financially to run out and buy a new one while paying off this one, so I figured I'd do what I can to my Civic to improve the performance. That's why I built it, and I'm glad I did. Didn't cost too much, runs much better, sounds better and looks pretty nice with the wheels and tires.
The other day I raced a Focus SVT on Woodward Avenue here in Detroit, and kept up with him neck and neck. Not too shabby.
Thanks for the input fellows.

Remember: when you're talking about anything relating to cars, there's a lot of driver skill involved. I'm sure Stephen Papadakis could step into a stock civic and beat the hell out of anybody in a tc.
