Default Max Integra NA power?

I was just wondering: About how much Naturally Aspirated HP is the Integra capable of (with the regular engine...and since it is going to be modified heavily to achieve this...B18C1 or C5 wouldn't make much difference anyway..)

Is it around the 280hp range? That was what I was thinking...about 280hp max

And then: What shot of N20 can this setup handle? (I'm not even sure if NA cars (the heavily modified ones) can use N20...and yes...if it used N20, then it wouldn't be NA...I know.. I was just wondering if like a 150 shot would work..or even 200 or something like that?

And then: If weight only about 125 pounds less than stock (I would like all the amenities and such is why (Nice audio system/ac/leather seats/)) ...then what 0-60 and quarter mile times should I expect? (with and without the N20)

thanks for any estimations...and the hp figure is needed as well...if an NA car can produce more than 300hp without the N20...I may just ditch turbo all-together (I know it will COST MUCHO and all that..it's worth it though...in my mind)

1.)The average horse power I have seen pumped out of a GSR or Type R n/a is about 210 to the wheels. The max horse power I have seen n/a is some where in the 240 range. I really don't know if I have ever seen any Honda 1.8L put out 280 n/a and I think 300 wheel horse power n/a is way out of the question.

2.)I have seen a fully built JE Crower GSR handle a 175 horse power squeeze, 200 could be possible but tuning is going to be a major thing and traction is also going to be a bitch.

3.)A general rule of thumb is for every hundred pounds you drop off the car you will drop roughly .1 of a second give or take

4.)If you can get a GSR to produce 240 wheel horse power you will be runing on 100 + high octane race gas and the car will not be streetable. To reach these kind of numbers you will need to mill the head and or run a real high compression piston, which will make it a lot harder to run N2O. Also after building a work of art that will produce 240 whp why would you want to run N2O?

Good Answer...that answered everything..

Basically, it let me know that I still want to go turbo...when you said that I'd have to use race gas and that it would not be streetable...that was enough for me...

I just want something to smoke those pesky corvette type cars with (including the camaros and the like)..and possibly compete with the exotics...but not win against them of course.. (I guess around 12psi daily driven will work)...Oh, and I guess the main thing I forgot here: FOR THE STREETS...(and then the track comes secondary)..

Thanks for the help dood..
