building up the engine
P i assume stands for pulley because i can't think of anything else P would stand for.
Okay so if you're pushing 161whp with I/H/E/P then how much does a stock tC have whp wise? like 140-150whp?
figure thats only 15whp for all that money spent (mind you i didnt pay retail) 300$ for header, 250$ for pullies, 200-300$ for intake, 500$ for exhaust.
thats almost 1250$ if someone were to buy retail, again i didnt pay that much. i spent 80$ on brand new header, 50$ on intake and Aem filter, 100$ on greddy evo 2 exhaust & 140$ on NST pulley set. Even then i still overpaid for nothing

ugh stock isnt 161 its what i said above, unless your talking about to the crank which doesnt mean anythng
and idk who is gaining 30whp from bolt ons. i jus told you i only gained <15whp with all bolt ons

FlintMica2005 I only have I/H/E not P yet lol I guess 160+ whp is the most for the bolt on. most 5speed stock dyno 138-140 whp. so is like 20 whp gain. how much HP you expect with few hundred dollars bolt on?
yeah most ive seen is 167 on ptunings dyno. 5 spd stock is 140-145. auto is 135-138ish. considering with a honda, bolt ons for those cars get great gains
and a few hudred is infact almost 1000$ dollars if bought at retail price.

this is all true but the I/H/E/P or no P its all setting you up for more. its increasing flow to and from the engine. the intake is getting more air in easier with less restriction, the header and exhaust do the same with air going out.
now you get more aggressive cams and higher compression pistons. if you have a cai pulleys either a torque damp or stiffer motor mounts, a header a 2.5" s pipe and custom midpipe with some exaust besides stock, add cams and 11:1 cr pistons your probably at least 250whp all motor, possibly more depending on your tune. keep in mind a turbo gets you around 270hp with a standard psi.
if you put the cams and pistons in without the i/h/e/p system your gains would not be nearly as much as your bottleneck would be intake and exhaust flow mainly.
the cams are an easy install the pistons not as easy but worth it. keep in mind youd need a tune. as far as pricing cams and pistons are both about $600 each.

he had 200whp all motor with 11:1 cr pistons, headers, stock s-pipe and stock midpipe and an axle back i think, stock cams but he had redone valvetrian and pnp head.
thats what i forgot to mention might want to fix up the head while your at it.
Brian crower sells stage 2 or 3 na cams and valvetrain parts or other companies for valves but i think bc is the only maker of the cams.
bc also makes a stroker kit that brings you to 2.61L and that would probably boost your power by a ton with everything installed. but thats a ton of money lol.

i could tell you who has 200 hp all motor but believe me... you could get a turbo for that money and pushing 250+ instead of 200! its not cheap... even if you install everything by yourself.
if you really dont want to get turbo i would say get a weapon R 4-2-1 header and s pipe combo, get a custom 2.25 mid pipe with aero25 resonator and whatever axle back muffler, get aem or either injen maybe weapon r intake. with these you could push MAAAAYBE 155 whp

I was in the same spot at you wanted an all motor tC.
I wasted a lot of money on an intake header spipe custom 2.25 midpipe and a trd Axel back.
I boosted 6 months later. I'll never go back. PERIOD.
But if u realy want an all motor tC go to dezod. Shoot em an email they are SUPER helpful.
