Ok, So my car is 141 HP at the wheels. What do you guys think?

From what I can see in the picture, the filter is not in the front bumper. Did you change it after you took the pictures?
!41 hp at the wheels? Hmmmmm....the motor came stock with 130 at the crank, and I'm not sure what it put out at the wheels. 141 sounds a little low, but your motor is basicaly stock besides the turbo.

Re:My Turbo setup
z6crx - I think CR is 9.3 (if this makes any sence?) I got the info off asia.vtec.net, under specs.
Dr.Boost - Look down the bottom right hand side of the pic, You will see the air filter, in front of this filter is the front bumper with has a fairly open grill which air flows through into the filter.
If the pic of my intercooler wasnt so dark you could see the filter to the right of it. (thats why I ment it was in the front bumper).
Like I said before, The engine would have been pumping out about 55 KW (KILO WATTS) @ the wheels while N/A, It now makes 105 KW. (KW & HP are both standard measurments used in New Zealand).
On the same dyno a Hybrid B18C JDM EG9 civic made 90 KW. (somthing else to measure it against)

Re:My Turbo setup
Well considering you damn near doubled your hp/kw I would say very nice and impressive. I forgot how much hp differs from the crank to the wheels. Very nice. Do you have any track times?

Re:My Turbo setup
Well I know a standard JDM DC2 B18C integra that does 13.7 (just stripped, no interior, no cat, semi slicks) and my car would have around 10-15 more horsepower than that so If I could get traction and got some track time, high 14's would definately be expected.
Theres a guy on Honda-tech with the same engine as me running 7psi with a similar setup (but in an eg hatch) who ran a 13.7 in street trim.
