Break it down:
Max stock for your car=190
N20=65
JWT Popcharger=14hp (around or about, some have less, some more)
Y=12 to 18HP
Straight Race Pipe=at least 8hp
ECU upgrade=10hp
UDP=no gains in HP but faster revving on engine
Catback exhaust=2 to 12 hp (if you have complete system, running 2.5 to 3 inches from engine back)

Basically you're running between 290 to 317 hp, but some of the figures I've quoted are from various applications to different cars or from different cars dynoed with some of the same mods.

So, some may argue and say more on somethings and less on others but like I said, "some of the figures quoted are from various applications to different cars dynoed with some of the same mods."

I just hope that they will read the fine print before they start to flame me.

I'd say about 270 horse, maybe a little bit more. You have to take into account that the horsepower ratings on these parts are to the crank, not wheels, unless specified.

The biggest problem of this post I have is that you can't just add HP figures for mods together and quote that as HP. It doesn't work that way. 14HP just for a popcharger? what are you, nuts? (no offense though, just rhetoric). You'll probably get about 15-20hp with a popcharger/intake coupled with a y-pipe.

I just want to dispell the myth that you can just add these figures together. It just doesn't work like that. Its more like a square root of the sum of sqares kind of thing (think pythagorean theorem) for flow improvements. An ECU upgrade can likely just be added normally as can NOS. All the other figures I agree to though and more or less agree with the rest of the post.

Like I said read the fine print, I know that some of the numbers will vary and I've looked at many different vehicles some dynoed, some not and even some of the dynos I looked at with the popcharger showed in the neighborhood of 10+hp with the intake, so again I said read the fine print. (no offense, taken, none given back)

Hey guys, not all honda owners just rice out there cars. I have complete respect to all you maxima owners out there also, im in a japanese car family with mostly nissans. my dad has a 95 nissan maxima with full catback, cold air intake, y-pipe, dropped about an inch or so, and 16's, along with other stuff. I wanted his car but he said no cuz he wanted to keep it for a little while longer. Hes looking to get the new Z or the infiniti Q35 version of it sometime in the future. Maximas are def. awesome cars and i think hondas are also. Believe me, id rather be driving my dads max then my slow as stock civic HX lol(soon to start moding). I plan to do some big mods in the future but i dont have the moeny for it right now. cya

there's no point in modifying that civic. if you sold the civic and use the money it'll take to make it as fast as a maxima (especially considering its an hx and doesn't even have Vtec) and actually buy a maxima, you'd be a lot happier.
you'll need an gsr engine or b18c or b16a which alone will cost you three grand. then you'll need an intake exhaust type-r or gsr tranny to handle the new power a new ecu for the new engine plust it's all gotta be installed. if you gonna mod a civic at least get an EX or Si. my firend went the same route with a dx civic but his dad's a mechanic and just kept taking needed parts off of junked cars so to him it was worth it. Not to mention that's his daily driver his real baby is 1986 buick grand natonal pushing 550 hp.

I appreciate you coming to this forum and not bashing Maximas or Nissans in general, you have my respect and I know not all civic are ricerz, I only despise the ricerz for their bs attitude and "I can beat anyone on the road because I saw the Fast & Furious and I added an intake, big BEEcan exhaust and tachometer."

Good luck with whatever you plan to do with your civic, just don't let anyone goad you into overricing your car.
