Probably visit the car manufacturer's website.
2002 Honda Civics have one engine with different power outputs, a GLi model has an output of 88kW (118 HP) and the Vi model has an output of 96kW (129 HP), I don't know if they badge them with the same names in the US though...LOL

Or if it is modded, get on a dyno.

Honda Japan uses kW to rate the power output their cars, 1kW = 1.34102209 HP, and since 88kW x 1.34102209 = 118.00994392 HP, I'd say 118 HP, not 117HP as referenced on the Honda US website. Even if you use 1.34, you still get 117.92 HP.
is anyone there and what r you people talking about ( i am a girl )
