absolutely, b16a can even achieve 200whp, or 220+whp, just depends on the parts used and the fuel.

Bit of debating on civiclife, whether the mods that one of the civics had would actually obtain 200+, and whether the other civic made 200+ before it even had all the mods done.. but hey I know its possible!
 
high comp pistons, big cams,mill/port head, tb/im, high octane (110+) fuel + tune = 220whp.

Its easy to make car with a lot of power, now weather or not it will be streetable is another story ;)
 
a 180whp 1.6 will be a bit of a pain in the arse to drive round town

and would need mapped for at least 100 octane with large cams and a full port and polish together with bodies

This was done in 2005 with certain mods from 1999 as evidenced by the aged and absolutely outdated parts used.

Although all dynos read differently, this car actually peaked over 185whp when spun up to 8700rpm. It would have hit 200whp but the head was 100% stock and non ported.

Bottom end is stock as well and fuel used was 91octane. The car was in So Cal.

Thanks fory our replies.

I'm asking this because I might get a EG6 and thats my whp goal! :nerv:

I want a setup that can be safe at 95 octane fuel, with 180 whp of course.. using hondata.. I think I might be asking too much .... :nerv:

You could always try, it's a challenge :)
 
I don't see what's so difficult about it.

I already posted one simple variation on how to get 180whp. There's nothing special or exotic (expensive) about that parts list.

Results WILL vary, but it's a very good starting point that has been proven.
 
I meant livable day to day (noise and having to use higher priced fuel depending on how far you take it, 180whp is easily doable with street fuel, but 220+ no way!! Not with a B series atleast...).
