My guess is high 200's low 300's. Upgrade that manifold in the future and you should see large gains. However, I'm assuming that your using a 57trim .63 A/R turbo though. You could easily acheive 300+whp with that setup, and probably mid 200's in the torque w/ low boost. All depends upon the skill of the tuner though.

Re: (eg:R)
so you think that the motor, tranny and turbo system will drop in from the top???
Good luck. It wouldn't on my EG Hatch. I had to do it from the bottom.
Problems your gonna have is that the small end of the tranny actually sits underneath the frame on that side, and the radiator support sticks out and will probably hit your wastegate.
But hey, if you get it to work from the top, props to ya!!!

Re: LS VTEC TURBO BUILD ON EK HATCH (PnoyEj6)
it depends on what motor and other variables, but my 450CC DSM's maxed out at 311whp on a B18C so 550CC are probably going to max out pretty soon after this.

Ive never used a motor hoist for any honda
Just jack them up real high, slide the motor underneath, then lower the car around the motor.
Nice and easy.

On my 10.4:1 LS/vtec, my RC 550's are at about 90% DC (sort of unsafe, lol) on 9lbs (estimated 320-330whp, stock fuel pressure). If you can, upgrade to larger ones, as it is not much more expensive and will allow you to push the limits of your other parts.

YOU NEED TO RUN A OIL LINE FROM YOU VTEC HEAD. YOU CAN GET A GOLDEN EAGLE LS VTEC KIT. YOU WOULD NEED A GSR DISTRIBUTOR, NOT AN LS.

you should look into a peakboost or a full-race manifold....not only would it look 10x's better but also will give you better spool up time and a more evenly smooth powerband
