K20a Type R Motor
Toda Race Header
Greddy evo2 exhaust
Injen Cold Air Intake
Unorthodox Racing Pulleys
Hondata IMG and K-Pro

I dyno'd at 217.3 whp and 160wtq

according to yahoo, the elevation of phoenix, az is only about 1100 ft.

at sea level, your dyno should be right at 220 whp, assuming that it is a dynojet dyno.

217-220 whp seems right for those mods.

you could probably gain a couple more whp by reducing the weight of your rims ;P

peak whp isn't always as important as the midrange ;P

no this dyno is strictly used for hondas and acuras. Yeah my midrange power is insane with the toda header. I will have to get a copy of my graph overlayed with my friends graph.. I will get it today.

If the header is for mid range, then top end will suffer, so #'s looks on par.

The numbers look pretty good but your 1/4 mile time and trap speed is terrible for having 220 hp to the wheels.

I dunno, a 94 mph trap is still pretty low. You shouldn't lose too much trap speed if your spinning unless its SEVERE spinning haha.

What was your 60ft time when you ran the 1/4? The reason why he ran a 14.9 could have been because of poor traction.

btw... those are good numbers but considering your mods they seem a little bit low.

his traction probably wasn't that bad considering his trap speed was 94 mph.

transformed had a tough time with traction since he ran a 14.7, but with a 98.8 mph trap. that trap is probably good for around low 14's

Yeah i know i did, i would alway have a good reaction time, like .1## but then my 60 fts would be between 2.5 - 2.9. And i would try fethering the clutch no luck there eaither. Just i really think the track i was at sucked!
