1998 Honda Civic EX

Owner: Damien Rodger
Dynamometer Model: Dynojet 248C

Dyno 1: Baseline




Pros
Civics have been the mainstay of Honda's lineup for a very good reason: They're affordable. Not only are they affordable, they're flexible. You can upgrade the existing powerplant or you can swap in a more powerful motor. The aftermarket has embraced this platform because there are so many variables that can be changed to make power. And the engine bay is pretty spacious, too.

Cons
Well, it's damned underpowered. Even though the single cam D16 motor has VTEC, it's just not the same as its DOHC VTEC brethren. Handicapped, perhaps, but you can still work with it.



Notes
This Civic has about 92k on the odometer but it's been driven kindly. We'll see what we can unleash under the hood.

Temperature
Air temperature @ 67 degrees Fahrenheit

Horsepower: 106.1
Torque: 94.0
