Any idea how much power it's actually making?To be honest i have no idea as this has never been on a dyno. I can tell you i ran low 14's at 100-105 mph with horrible launches (fail). I would guess 160-180 hp maybe but the power band is not typical turbo Honda. It is more mid range then top end as i built this as a daily driver not a race car.

The car is a hoot to drive.

Did you miss the part where he said he built it to be a daily driver. So it needed to have some level of reliability? Have you seen stock D series rods?

why did you build the motor if you just put a t25 on it? were you planning to upgrade in the future?Heath answered this pretty spot on. But show me one stock turbo d series that has any real miles on it? They don't exist as they blow up from being wholly under built for regular turbo duty.
