thats what I have for 144 whp. if by BHP you mean crank then thats a good guidline, if you want 150-160 wheel hp, ask me after summer.
144whp calculated with a 12% drivetrain loss = 161 crank HP.
Ye by 150 - 160bhp i'm meaning at the flywheel, i'd have to have a pretty big wallet for a 160whp N/A d16.

thats why u dont say BHP or WHP because brake wheel power and wheel power are not FLYWHEEL power. but to make 140-150 at the flywheel shouldnt be to hard! good luck man

Keep in mind, much of the horsepower to you will be comes from your tuning. So, if you investing in tuning gear and learning how to do it may be the best upgrade you can do for your car.

B-series if your wallet is fat.

Mods:
- H23 TB, took off coolant lines
- Hondata gasket
- Stock IM lightly polished
- K&N drop-in
- Megan Racing 4-2-1, heatwrapped
- Decat
- 2.25" catback with IMCO rear muffler
- No p/s
- streettuned using Crome
Not a big modlist, but it's much more fun to drive now.
Soon to be mounted:
- LSD Motorsports 6puck, mild PP
- LSD Motorsports Chromoly Flywheel, 8lbs
- AEM camgear
- COMP 59300 cam
I'll post up the dyno results when it's all in place.
I'm hoping to achieve something like 155hp.
Do you people think this is realistic?
And yes, I've searched, but I could'nt find a clear answer.

No, that's in Newton-Metres, around 123lbft. Divide Nm by 1.356 to get lbft.

That equates to just under 122ft/lb. Not bad
