Remeber guys, BHP is just a calculated figure !! This Dosnt determin how "fast" your car is.. Look at motorbikes for example - 120hp = SERIOUS FAST !!! - Its all about power to weight and the ability to process your engines power to the wheels as efficiently as possible...

I remember racing an impreza once in my modded 106 gti - cams - head work etc etc, he kept going on about blah blah my car has this much bhp and this much done to it and he kept making a point that I could never keep up with him because my car was just a lil 1.6 - what he failed to remeber that yeah he did have 340hp and my car did only have 160hp, however my 160hp was powering a biscuit tin like weight - 750kgs stripped... then he forgot to remeber that I was only losing power through 1 gearbox and 2 driveshafts !! - His 340hp had to move a 1300kg car - transfer through a front diff - center diff - transfer box - propshaft - rear diff and 4 wheels !!! - you shoulda saw the look on his face when my lil puddle jumper 106 went screaming past him at 110mph !!!!

Bhp does tell you how much power you have, but my no means take it as accurate or how FAST your car is..

Just My Opinion Guys -

Cheers Andy
 
man, this WHP issue is a big headache!!!

My bros FN2 CTR only makes 152whp in AUS on a dynodynamics dyno. Another B16A with toda C was only making 160whp.

What I'm saying is, forget about dyno figures and look at your Cylinder pressure numbers. If it's not leaking, then why would your engine would not be making 185hp?
