82 peak bhp. wtf is bhp? Like our whp?
yeah as stated above me bhp is brake hp
its used overseas for some reason it just means the top hp the engine makes (say it makes 50hp @ 6500rpm then it has 50hp but we use hp even tho technialy if you have 200hp you have 0-200hp depending on throttle position and rpm)

"brake" horsepower is just the european way of saying horsepower at the crank

So since its shaft driven, what kinda hp numbers do you think im looking at at the wheel. Im not even looking for something fast, i just want something fun to ride and does the speed limit easily.

if it says 82bhp
and you figure in the millage and its age
and parasatic loss witch is greater than a chain, and your looking at arround 52-55whp but if it was well taken care of it could be upwards of 65-70 but if you want power i would really suggest putting on a 2-1 pipe
also if you really wanna make dat turbo ---- pimpin you should twin turbo it with 2 ihi rhb3 turbos they are the smallest turbos made they support like 110-450cc or 20-60hp
the entire turbo, snail and is about the size of a bic lighter and impeller is just crazy small

oh and i did end up turboing it and it made 242whp @ 6300rpm and 10psi with a small boost creep at arround 5800rpm to arround 11-12psi

well i paid $800 for the car and i would rather a 165hp quad 4 instead of a 110hp pushrod piece of ----
and i wasen't going to spend the money on an ecotec swap
it did fine and ran 13.76's on steelies spinning bad in 1st and 2nd but its cool
with some slicks it may have ran 12.9's or so
