Default Combo, HP?

Around what horsepower would you receive if you had bolt ons such as cai/h/e, high flow cat, vtec controller (tuned), pulleys, cam gears, fuel rail, plugs & wires, and msd ignition? What exedy clutch would anyone recommend for the weekend racer?

which engine are you talking about?

an H22 with that stuff would probably dyno around 190 whp.

btw the cam gears are mostly useless without aftermarket cams.

Agreed, you would probably see somewhere around 185-190whp with the mods you listed. The fuel rail, plugs and wires would probably offer very minimal gains, nothing noticeable. And as bad-monkey said, to take full advantage of the cam gears you should use a good set of aftermarket cams. About the clutch, I'm not to sure but I think people like the Exedy Organic clutch.

more like 185, but these days it depends on which ones you are using. there are $1200 headers, and there are $200 headers.

I have a greddy header, but this is all off topic. I haven't run the 1/4 I've been too busy.

Horsepower is measured at the wheels in real life circumstances, manufacturer ratings are at the flywheel (i.e. engine out of car). Drivetrain loss, and especially for the SH loses hp getting it to the wheels. An SH has like 150-155 stock at the wheels. So acutally I would rate you possible results lower just becuase it's an SH.
