Default 1.5 Civic meets Greddy Turbo Kit

Been checking out this site for some time and it seems that you all have your heads on straight, ok maybe not, but your numbers seem true. My question is:How much horsepower and torque do you think I will be looking at? 1.5 d motor, MSD, 2.5 inch Cat Back Exhuast, No Cat.

Guys?,
I think the 1.5 puts out about 102 horse at the crank so I am just curious where
the Greddy kit will take me. Also a friend of mine in Colorado is willing to install a
1.6 VTEC motor for 800.00 with the ecu but no tranny or nothing. LOOK at where I live, not a lot of Hondas around here just a bunch of trucks and SUV's. So any help would be help. Hell, our local Drag Strip (Douglas Raceway closed this year as well)

When i had my d15b7 turbo'd i was putting down 139whp but that wasn't with a greddy kit it was a home grown kit.If you run the stock 5.5psi you should see about what i had...150 hp (crank) or so....up the boost up goes the power (with proper fuel upgrades)..$800 for a d16 is kind of expensive, you can pick them up for about 1/2 that complete......

Thanks, What rpm do you think this will spool up at and with the few extra ponies'
will it do much damage to my stock clutch? I know thats hard to answer but it seems to be a pretty strong clutch right now. By the way the odometer shows 212000 and I autocrossed it all over the place this year, love that Honda reliability!
Sure I will race someone now and again but I am more into the sactioned race thing so I wont be racing from Every stop light.

You should have a good powerband, but you'll probably be looking at 130-140 hp at the wheels max.
