What horsepower should I have?
I was wondering if anyone had experience w/ the same setup that I have or knows around how much power I should be making w/ this setup.
It's LS Vtec motor, but normally when people do LS vtec motors they put in like b16 or CTR ot ITR pistons to make high compression and most come out w/ good HP numbers.
My setup Is LS Vtec but it has the stock LS pistons and rods w/ gsr head which makes a 9.7:1 compression ratio.
I have a skunk2 intake manifold and DC headers w" 3" inch catback exhaust.
What do you all think or KNOW I she be putting down to the wheels in horsepower if my fuel and timing is right w/ this setup?
No turbo though

Then i recommend using a dyno there pretty impressive they measure horsepower and torque at the wheels. Yeah i know your thinkin hes crazy but they do exist and tend to be more accurate than guessing.

Ok without being an *** this time there are a million variables that could cause you to have more or less hp theres really no way to know without dynoing.

who cares, it's never enough horsepower, ever. You can tune for nice hp gains on the street... it's been around for awhile from what I usnderstand, looking into it.

112hp@6914rpm
98ft/lb@6875rpm
your numbers will be exactly this. not higher or lower. Dynos are overrated. all you do is take your VTEC pressure and multiply that by the square of the line bore diameter to get those numbers.
