personally im not a boost expert but i do know you're pushing as honda claims 125HP stock. boost hp comes down to how good the engine is and how much boost you add. from as low as 5 psi to 25 psi. i have an f22b2(130hp) and as long as its solid enough i can boost with stock internals at around 6 or 8 psi and get around 200 to 220 hp. i could say if you can with stock internals maybe 200 hp at the same psi or if you build it you get even more at a higher psi.

whats your mileage, whats been kept up on and such with the car?

Provide more info. The same setup can produce 180HP or 250HP depending on the tuning.

I don't think you'll reach 200hp at the wheels @ 6psi... maybe, just maybe @ the crank

^^^ depends on the setup. A GT35 turbo could put that much power through a 4 cylinder on low boost. All depends on the matching and the tune. A 16G snail wouldn't put out as much power with 50% more pressure.

yeah, but his car is 125hp stock @ crank... @ the wheels is more like 105hp if not less... you really think you can reach 200hp @ the wheels @ 6 psi?

oh well... i still think that 100% increase on 6 psi is far less likely than a 25-50% but who knows... maybe w/ other mods it can get close...
