If you have those figures from a bogo standard engine I will eat my own jobby. Did you take it out of your civic :lol:

Thanks for the rep ddd and dont be disappointed people spend thousands to get less than that out of a na motor unless of course your newkid.

Standard 230 bhp that's pretty impressive any printouts 8-) Hopefully be more like 260-270 by the end of the month

Frankly, I'm not at all surprised based on what you've had done, and I wouldn't be at all disappointed either 8-)
You have a decent amount of bhp with a lot more potential should you want, but you a have nice fat chunk of torque, that will make a huge difference to how it drives.
Don't listen to any naysayers, some see turbo and think massive bhp. Most diesels are turbos FFS, but they dont make big bhp, they make BIG torque.

if you get another tune i would seriously consider looking at type s cams, they seem to give good results on boosted motors! :twisted:

I thought it would have made a bit more torque tbh but its still well up on a na thats had a fortune spent on it and thats what you need unless you only drive downhill :lol:
