At rear wheels the neighborhood of 160, depending. They are rated at 193 at the flywheel and factor a 10-15% driveline loss with a manuel and you get 164HP with a 15% loss in threoy.

hp to Liter is good if you have the motor sitting on a stand, in the car its hp to weight thats important, figure that out and youll have a better idea.
Remember you can compenstae for a low HP to LBS ratios with gears. A lot of other factors come into play when racing, driver, condtion of car, aerodymanics, weight, power, gearing, the list goes on. Torque thrills.
This is a waste of webspace. Your car is slow, too. It's a stock automatic V6 Mustang. You don't really have bragging rights, either.
Stock? Check out his sig, some of that isnt stock..
He has only two things, exhaust and cai. The cai is adding nothing, maybe 1-2hp if it all and the exhaust really does affect that much unless its a full exhaust.

why do people race civics though? i mean the whole point of the civic was cheap transportation! thats why they introduced it during the oil embargo when performance was frowned upon you want a fast honda? get an s2k, god i love those cars... badass little 4 banger
no, im talkin about the people who drop thousands in turbos and body kits and neons when they could use that money on an s2k! i mean we all drive 6er mustang but alot of us want to upgrade to the gt
and there has always been a 6 in the mustang, they never got rid of it
that and i dont know if yall have noticed this but there is nothin cheap about our cars they guzzle about as much gas as a v8, they have the same probs as the v8 and cops watch us as much as the v8s mustang, be it 4, 6 or 8 cyls are not cheap transportation
civic are 4 door econoboxes designed to get you to point a to point b

I think the moral of the story is, don't laugh at him until you race him. Granted, a mere 5% of Civic owners actually know what they are doing to make a fast civic. But still, being cocky, esp with a V6 Mustang, isn't the way to go....
Agreed.

i think it would be kind of funny if you race him and he has swapped in a B18C5 or H22 engine into that car. you also didn't say what model he has, or if it has anything done to it. so for all we know he might not be stock

Correct me if Im wrong but from 79 to 93 didnt they just have 2.3s or 5.0s??? I dont remember them having a 6er back them, but I could be wrong.
