I think i've seen that video somewhere before but don't know where. But it's possible to make that much power out of a 2L

That is really pushing a 2.0L block.

It is a European video, their dynos often show crank hp. So it could be 240-250whp.

Also it looks like he still has PRB or PRC manifold...

The K20 powered Ek9 featured in last issue of honda tuning had 278 WHP on churchs dyno. And its still a 2 litre afaik, but there isent much stock parts left in the motor. Basicly everything that can be changed to make more power is changed. Nice car anyways :)

Heres a 253BHP EDM EP3R

Does it really matter? The A2`s drivabilty, or every K20`s are improved by quite a bit when you tune it. So dyno number are dynonumbers. But im pretty sure im going to brag about it when ive had my car tuned to.:mbiggrin: Just like everybody else. I planing a on using a tuner with a dynapack that has been given the name, The heartbreaker :mrolleyes:

LOL,,, you can only trust Churchs dyno for one thing, it is the only dyno that creates fictional numbers...LOL

Churchs even stated their dyno reads considerably higher than actual so that it matched their old dyno numbers. And this is exactly what and how a dyno should be, it is simply a tool to tune with and shouldnt be considered as true whp, just a way to compare modifications to the SAME engine/car run on the same dyno.

So very very true. Cars can be compared on the same dyno, but once you start comparing data from different dynos there is no constant therefore no true comparison.
