Next Civic SI to get 220+hp turbo 4
- Thread starter Mook
- Start date
The Vette has had around 400hp since 2006....has only received 30 more
30 more from a naturally aspirated motor isn't bad. 20 more going from a NA to forced induction doesn't seem like it's even trying considering they could just put in the k20 whatever that is in the s2000's thats been making 240hp since 1999
So let me get this straight Honda is talking about a boosted 4 cylinder with "only" 220hp?
As many others have mentioned the K series makes what 200hp NA?
Mean while GM offers 2.0 turbo 4 cylinder with 275hp and has offered a turbo 4 cylinder in the cobalt back in 2008 that made 260hp.......
Good job Honda let us know when you can offer a 275hp + 4 cylinder........

For contrast sake, Our Cooper S was advertised as ~180hp, and is frequently compared to the GTI and we cross shopped it with the MazdaSpeed3 and Focus ST.
There will be a strong market for this, even if it only has 230hp.
It's also worth reminding everyone that turbo power plants aren't about peak HP numbers but Torque and power curve........

This. When I can get over 300ft/lb torque to the wheels on the ST just from a tune, thats something they need to be able to compete with.
Either way IFFFFFF someone wants to do anything with the Honda the aftermarket will be there.
Even more so than say a Focus ST I'd dare say.
Boosted anything is easier to make more HP and TQ with so having it come factory with a turbo is pretty big for Honda.
Now if them retards at Toyota and Subaru would turbo the god damn fucking BRZ/FRS!!
Why those are not offered with a turbo from factory will always baffle me.

But only God knows why GM refuses to put that engine in anything for the last decade, save for a grandpa Buick pig.
What Can You Tell About The 2017 Honda Civic Type-R Engine By Looking At It?
This image was sent to us with that note that the forum members “have credible sources who indicate the next Civic Si is slated to receive a detuned version of this engine that should produce around 230 horsepower.”
It’s also been said that this engine uses an electric wastegate actuator and integrated blow-off valve on the compressor housing.
All we really know is that Honda’s claimed this engine will make more than 276 horsepower and wail to a 7,000 RPM redline. They’ve also said it will be mated with a traditional three-pedal manual gearbox.
That's more like it. Detune it if Honda wants Aftermarket will fix that in a hurry no problem.

I'd hope detune doesn't mean bastardize the engine to cut cost and use cheaper parts although I got a feeling your right.
Even still getting back to that 250plus HP mark will happen with Honda aftermarket.
Lets be honest its a damn civic they make everything for them things. I would expect the Honda fanatics to continue with this generation too.

The 8th gens they still come in with issues. I have rebuilt 2 transmissions that have blown from faulty 3rd gear synchros. The 9th gens have been having some throw out bearing noises. Replaced a couple. Come back in 5 months with the same noise. Honda advised me to replace it again thinking it was a defective part. Replaced. Came back again in 5 months almost to the day. Honda then said to replace the whole clutch assembly and throw out bearing and to over night them the parts to figure out what's going on. Car came back again about 6 months later and the guy ended up trading it in. It's happened on numerous 9th gens we have had at the dealer.
. Drives fine for everyday driving.
