I was looking at some of the engine models that was posted for Hondas. i saw one that I thought sounded pretty good for my car. Its the B16A VER. 2 for a 94 Civic. It says it has 170 ps. Is 170 ps better or worse than 170 hp? I dont even know what ps means......I'm learning, SLOWLY, but I'm learning. Thanks! :)
