why? why? why?

I love when people emphasize words that are used incorrectly. It makes me chuckle.


Anyway, our cars, when brand new, made 125-140hp at the crank. Assume roughly 15-18% drivetrain loss. That's a range of 102.5hp to 119hp to the wheels. Some engines will produce more power than the factory states, some less. Some will grow stronger as they break in, some weaker. It IS possible that a very well maintained engine at 150k miles could be making near original horsepower... maybe even more. The possibility of any CB7 putting down more than 125whp EVER in bone stock form is highly unlikely, however.

So basicly it would be acurate for us A6 guys to be able to say we put down 120... maybe 125 if I/H/E

May 23 us ohio guys are having a dyno meet, so we will know for sure here soon...

140 crank hp new. Call it 15% loss for the tranny ( more if auto, as much as 20% or more depending on wear) makes it 119, figure another 10% for age, you're looking at about 107 whp stock.
You might see a buck and a quarter with IHE.

All engines are different though.

[deevergote]

Yeah, definitely. If your engine is as strong as your calculations figure, Jon, it may have been putting down 140whp bone stock.

why is everyone saying oh my accord puts down 120 horses?

i remember watching top gear - the episode old supercar challege

horsepower drops..

we probably only have 85-90 horsepower lol

85 horsepower?
i have a stock F22 with a few basic bolt-ons and it puts down much more than 120horses(at the wheels). that is "why"!

Good thing your opinion doesnt matter then.

Basic bolt ons, i would assume im pushing TOPS of 100. Thats everything tweaked to perfection too.

Intake, high flow cat, stock piping down, exhaust header. Chip isnt in yet, but i would assume once i get my P06 chipped, i should be able to nail 115ish.

when I got my baseline numbers before the swap, the f22 put down 115whp, and 135ft-lbs. It had a cold air intake and cat-back exhaust, no header.

just like yours.

There is a difference between HP to the wheels and a HP at the crank...

Later!

[FNEG]

i put down 138/137 at the wheels
but my motor is a mut and not stock but all honda parts

[chessboxer]

I have all bolt ons too!

My car makes 120 whp at 1500 rpm. haha
