don't know yet, haven't hit the dyno, but i should be at least in the ~400whp range.... SAFELY.... no point in spending a ton of money just to push the limit time and time again and blow the motor

when you upgraded your drivetrain..what exactly did you upgrade???? drive shafts???? LSD??? I plan to go turbo as soon as I get out of college and have everything planned out and have done exhaustive research and have been keeping a close eye on your threads and as for my plans they dont include drivetrain..well clutch and maybe flywheel adn possibly drive shafts????

Without axles and lsd or clutch(already have it), there quoting me 8-10, guranteed me it wouldn't go over 10,500. That's with turbo setup(fmax, but swapping to a dif. turbo. (what u recomend). full fuel system, standalone ecu, and fully building my engine. This is all including LABOR!!! and these guys do great work. They've been in magazines, have one of the fastest civic's in the country

well, there was A LOT of other stuff i did, which sucks, casue it cost me an arm and a leg, but the end result should be well worth it once everything is done and tuned

Are the axles necesary? How much hp can the stock axles handle before they should be upgraded?
