i dont really care about torque why cause torque is only useful on first gear. After first gear its pertty much all hp. And plus im adding 55 shot wet juice with this. So i'll make up for troque =D so 180whp you guys think i'll make ?

torque is good for daily driving
but thats me, i can't stand SI's engine

180 is a definite
and NOS on this motor is dangerous!
but if u get a good safe kit, u might be able to stay alive from it.

Your comment about torque is incorrect...obviously you have never driven on a windy road.

gearing creates fake torque. quiker acceration

i would like to see a honda make the kinda torque that a mustang or camaro makes. ALLmoTor
and i think a 1.8 would beat a 1.6 on the track, X or drag, the torque is there to pull u out of the turns

Are you new???? Did you just get your drivers license???

I guess you've never heard of the phrase " There's no replacement for displacement."

Everyone should put the last statement in their call signs!

You should be able to put down 180whp, and the NOS will be very safe on this setup.
