petone 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2004 Hi guys, One of my mates has a 92' Vtec prelude. Its pretty standard other than pod filter, and an exhaust with a big shiny muffler and a coby. Anyway he took it down for a dyno tune at chequred flag. First run he made 132 kW and after they had a little play with it he made 136 KW. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that around 180 hp at the wheels, and if we say theres a 20% power loss through the drivetrain he's got 225hp at the fly. I reckon thats pretty impressive for an pretty much stock NA 2.2 thats over 10 years old. Has anyone else had any experience with the Chequred Flag dyno, and how accurate is it? Before anyone asks I have seen the printout so he isn't full of BS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petone 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2004 I thought it was around 200bhp standard as well, i just wasn't expecting a repco pod and a bling bling muffler to give that much of a gain. Oh well at least theres something going for hondas. I realise that dyno's are mainly for tuning but i just wondering if anyone knew if it that dyno gave particlulary high readings. Still, hes making the same power per litre as the latest M3 in a car that cost $6500 inlcuding mods. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
