That's not at the wheels.

the car wil still be slow.

dirft mater

oh k but yall still not telling me how much

98civdx

How the **** are we supposed to know!?

You haven't given us nearly enough to even make a somewhat educated guess.

dirft mater

dont u cuse at me ok im trying to to fuirger it out bc ppl telling me 20 more hp on to 130

98civdx

Do you know how to spell?

Again, how are we supposed to tell you anything, with the info you have given us?
We can't!

You'll be lucky to make 140, if it was built.

dirft mater

it got cold air Intake and cat back muffler with hight fow cat sound that is all

There are different heads and blocks that put down different amount of power so you saying d16 and d15 isnt enough info to figure out how much power it would put down.

Does it matter? You're still slow. 5 more horsepower won't matter. You won't know unless you want to spend he money to dyno it. End of story.

If you want numbers, your looking at maybe 115 at the wheels...A cold air will add maybe 4 whp, and a cat back doesn`t add maybe more than 2...but even that you won`t feel it. If you boosted it, than you would.. so all together maybe 120whp at the wheels. That`s the power of a stock D16Z6.correct me if i`m wrong..

Sounds about right. Still slow.

if a 1.6 makes 130hp and you have a 1.5 bottom end under the 1.6 head, you will be making less than 130hp not 20 more....

Your best bet bro, is to find and build a D16 bottom end and boost it. You can`t have a 'fast' Civic if you wanna stay cheap...it`s just not gonna happen.

That's not really true now is it? I don't think all these people would be doing all these mini-me swaps to make LESS power.

92lxsleeper

mini me's will actually make the same power as a d16 or more, just from the increased compression.

dirft mater

Well before my d16 motor blow up i lost alot of power bc of oik steal and oil compresstion hut this one i can tell alot of disffer untill the guy dident put right head gasket on he put rubber head gasket on it now he fixinging it now

Is this English?

1988montecarlos

i had always thought people put the 1.6 vtec heads on 1.5's to make more power than the stock 1.5, not put 1.5 bottom ends in 1.6 vtec cars, but i very well could be wrong, i had always assumed the bottom ends were similar except for the displacement

You said the same thing. 1.6 VTEC head & 1.5 block.

Your engine has 132hp. 102.6hp at the wheels. Go have fun
