I assume you mean a B18c? in which case you would basicly be building an almost Type-R engine, and so would have almost as much hp. (depending on your choice of "street" cam of course, you might get more)

If you are talking about a B18b, then gains around 15% could be expected, but then it depends largely on the type or cams you choose, and what the fuel delivery and ingnition limits are on the B18b ECU.

You might find for the money it would be cheaper to simply swap the B18b for a VTEC B18c.
