you say you're into real tuning of a car yet you're asking how much hp bolt-ons will get. let me say this, don't expect much.

Re: how hp will i really get? (2slow4show)

wont be worth the money you will be spending. Only way to make power out of a stock sohc will be fi .....and even then your limited. You could expect way more hp gains out of a DOHC with those bolt on's rather than a SOHC good luck.

you should save up for a cam and a gear, and worry about about boost over getting a header and intake

Re: how hp will i really get? (exotik4doorcivic)

Hmm... I was watching HPTV's buildup of their coupe. It was a non-vtec single cam motor.. (not familiar with D's). When they put on IHE they got around 10HP (dyno before and after).. then they added a 60(?) shot of nitrous and made around 130HP on the bottle. Just for reference.
