More what?
Its easy to misjudge a motor based just on a dyno sheet especially if you havent seen a lot of comparisons in person or familiarity with parts. Took me a lot of research and personal data to better inform myself. Of the dynos in la and sheets on the internet ive seen Raceline is one of the most accurate (dynojet). My first time there was a dyno day and a lot of the numbers for stock cars were almost on que for where they should be. Theres always gonna be variables like motor health etc. My car is definately not tuned so there could be some more power to be had. Elton (owner/tuner) said not much.. my a/f was not that bad with the type r ecu. Also strip away the mod list and this is basically all i have performance wise: itr cams, intake, manifold, header and exhaust. i/h/e + cams. Now compare what i have with what a stock type r has. Cams and exhaust alone gave me 20whp 10tq. The intake manifold only added about 3-4whp. I have dynos for each upgrade for recorded data. Tuning might land me at 180 and im hoping it does. Future header change closer to 185. Well.. i should upgrade header first lol.
Ive also compared sheets on gsr motors with less motor mods and similar numbers but when it comes to dyno sheets, comparing x state and with another physical dyno even if the same kind doesnt make for a true comparison.
Oh sweet i dont recall seeing a retro in your build but admittedly i spent the most time looking at your motor build. :mrgreen:nice retrofit.
Check mine out.
