It will be what it was rated at before. If it is out of a civic si or a base rsx, it'll come with 160. If it is out of an rsx type s than it'll be between 200 and 210 depending on the year. To the wheels, probably between 135 and 190. You have to modify it to get it to 300hp, which many people have. Check out one of the many civic forums to get specifics, they are a wealth of knowledge.
Yea the first answer is correct! ^ if its from a civic si or base rsx you'll get 160 with no other mods. You can add an intake, exhaust, headers and bring it up to about 180. If you can get a rsx type s motor that'll be your best shot for most power without any other mods than the engine.
