Guessing you don't mind changing turbo and injectors?
Mate of mine ran 220 through his escort on standard internals but think that's pretty much the boundaries

About 200bhp is the reliable limit tbh paul Uprated injectors, t3 turbo, larger intercooler, mapped, kent/piper cam and vernier pulley With uprated internals the block is good for 300bhp

Okay that's good to know. Had Turbo ideas and building a zetec one costs too much. |

Yeah I do like the sound! 200bhp would be a good power increase. Its only ideas, and cvh turbo would be alot less hassle |

so what's the cost to get to 200 BHP from standard And then what's the cost to get to 300bhp? I assumed they were good blocks to reach 300bhp without having any internals changed... But I'm with Paul, no nothing about the CVH engine really. Quite shocked... Paul - Civic Si it up  ! Wait until you go in mine - you'll want one. even 250bhp at 9000rpm sounds amazing, nevermind 300+!

See my train of thought on this was... Oh I fancy a turbo in the si... hmmm zetec turbo costs a bomb, but if a cvh can reach a decent amount without too much cost, than I might go that route. Or... I could just save up and buy a newer car in a few years... Ry... i love the sound of the teg.. id love some vtec-boost

I hate to admit it but its so nice to have a newer car, well mines 2002 but so much more refined, as a daily its worth having the newer car. Older cars are to be in a garage looked after. |

if you can get a 1.9 block  cvh ftw! sound =  but with headwork, bottom end work, turbo injectors etc etc 350bhp can be achieved

not bad from a 130bhp base! although it does depend on management to - cosworth management would help alot |

No it doesn't Adam - yes, 130bhp up to 300bhp is a good achievement. Just seems like a lot of effort to get to 300bhp though, with an old old engine. |

not to much effort - although if you had the 1.9 block and cossie management it would help alot! but the noise of a cossie managed CVH is swweeeetttt and lol at no rust issues! |
