    the official figure is 185 bhp.
    ek shape civic whic is 1996-2000 model

    but dont forget that this figure is based on japans 100 ron fuel, realistically over here running on 95 ron and without a remap you will more than likely be running approx 170-175 bhp.

    whoever told you 145 doesnt know their hondas :D

    sure a standard irish VTi id 158bhp!

    hope this helps

    "at the wheels" figure is different to the other rated figure (180) which is "at the fly"

    Ive seen a good few dynoed and they tend to not be far off there rated figure,its a great car either ways with a rake of tuning potential and should keep a smile on your face all day long.
