I own a 92 4 door civic. I just recently bought a jspec GSR motor with the tranny and everything. The motor is already installed in my car and running good. But i have a few questions. My mechanic told me i couldn't keep my stock ac and that i have to buy a integra compressor. Is that true. My mechanic also told me that my motor is a 99 but someone else told me it's a 94, how do i tell. As i said i have a jspec GSR which has 180 hp and I also got the LSD tranny. The mods i have a DC 4-2-1 headers, AEM cold air intake, crappy 3Aracing exhaust with a test pipe, Aem cam gears, Aem fuel rail and regulator, MSD 6al ignition with a coil, Mugen clutch with Exeddy flywheel, and the Apexi vtec controller. Should this set up be fast. What kind of types can i expect in th 1/4. How many horses do i have(estimate). What should i do next. Please please help i really need to know this stuff. All the help i can get is greatly appreciated. thanks

 

go to a dyno follow it with a visit to the strip

 

i'm gonna eventually go to the dyno and to the strip i just want to know more or less what kind of hp and timeslips should i expect

 

check around the exhaust ports, there will be oval/circles with year stamped on it (9/9) (0/1) or something to that

as far as dyno number around 150-155whp is about right for the mods, as far as 1/4 mid-high 14's should also be attainable ...

 

I don't see why you can't keep the stock AC...I did in my 92 cx, just had to use a Del Sol AC bracket.

 

I heard about using a del sol bracket but i asked my mechanic about it and he said it won't work. And shouldn't i have more hp than 150 at the wheels if the motor comes with 180. Plus all the mods i have

 

Ask your mechanic why not and get back to me...I'm as curious as you are. And yeah, 150 sounds a bit low.
