horsepower

Alright guys me and my friend who owns a prelude have been in an arguement over how much horsepower my set-up was making. I have a 84 GSL-SE with a 13B 4-port, mikuni carb sidedraft, headers to full exhaust, e-fan, rats nest removal, and a street-port. I have already beat him like he's standing still. I've told him anywhere from 180-200 and he then boasts that my car with those mods could not give me those numbers cause thats what hondas get after being turbo'd. I'm hopefully sometime getting an exhaust as mine could not hold-up to the horsepower and died off. I also have 225-50-15 in the rear and 215-50-15 in the front. If anyone could help me with this please due thanks guys.

~200-220hp at the crank unless it has *** tuning

IMHO

rotaries are loved for being easy to get power out of, of course it'll mod better than a shitbox honduh

It sounds like the car has alot of money in mods. Spend a Benjamin and go to a dyno. Then add 20% for your flywheel horsepower.

well this is the thing, I bought the car off a girl for 1850 and it only has 103K. NO Rust. The only thing wrong with it is it has black doors that I'm trying to get painted. If I want to take it to a dyno I'm gonna have to buy a clutch first.
