4-banging: yep still the B16, again I don't know the full extent of the work done, so I can't tell you much about the actual engine and internals. I will be sure to update when I get this info.

oc_civic: Like stated above, I do not know the extent of all the work and parts done to the vehicle, I'm sure it has suspension done, and many more engine parts I am currently unaware of.

What I am asking everybody to do is give your guesstimate, looking at the dyno numbers that were provided to me, to get a feeling of what you guys think. And then when we take it to the track, hopefully he'll pull what you guessed or we can be pleasantly surprised and he'll hit lower numbers than the majority voted.:thumbup:

Hey man, sup? yeah knowing that is a T3/T4 turbo doesn't help much. He has to be boosting pretty high to be getting 350 plus horsepower...but didn't you say he was on stock internals? if that much power is being generated, he's probably got forged internals, a higher compression ratio, big injectors and a HELLA lot of tuning. its just hard to say.

Hey my man incublinkus. Where have you been haven't heard from you. Yeah, like I stated maybe 50 times in the thread I do not know the extent of the work. I am just saying 350+ whp so based on that what you guys think.

BTW: chapon, you've got to see this ride, its sweet you'd like the C-West front end.

I've been updated on the ride though, they think he has snapped a tranny mount, because every time the guy starts to move the car, it sound like something is loose and has a lot of play, its not in the engine bay I don't think.

You guys think too much power for stock tranny? Tell me what you guys think it is so I may be able to inform th guy of his prob. Thanks.

no way, my boy had a 455 whp hatch and he was using a stock b16 tranny. engine is getting rebuilt now for over 600whp and the only modification to the tranny will be an lsd.

Hmmm, interesting. What can it be then, you think the kid romped on it too hard before he got a feel for the car after work was done? We are stumped here.

This car should run 12's on street tires. It will probably have traction problems, so on slicks 11's.
