Mutated GTU?
Ok, I got a few questions for some of you out there. I have a 1990 GTU with the N/A engine. Everything in the car looks bone stock, except for the radio and stuff like that, under the hood no visible modifications. I had it dynoed about 8 months ago and it dynoed at 251hp, I have taken it to Rocky Mountain Raceway and with perfect shifts i ran the 1/4mile in 13.1 I have been trying to figure this out, someone told me maybe my ECU got reflashed and a possible port and new injectors. I havent really torn into it to much because it works great and i want it to stay that way. But does anyone know why my car would push that much horsepower? any suggestions?

Also is the dyno 251 bhp or whp?
he said he took it to rocky raceway 1/4 and hit 13.1 ...so it had to be whp
but i can be wrong i kno my t2 probably wont hit 13.1 ...any pics of the engine bay.?

Yeah im sure 100% its an N/A, its something that has baffled alot of my friends who have rx7's as well. so thats why im asking everyone. And no pics of the engine bay, but I could hopefully take some and get them uploaded soon. And it is 251whp

It's turbocharged, or a three rotor.
Or bridgeported, which should be obvious from the idle.
No way a NA 13B will ever hit 250 RWHP without at least a healthy full bridgeport.

im in taylor, in between west haven and hooper. I have looked for the dyno paper or the timeslip from rocky mountain race way but i cant the papers since its been over 8 months sence it was done. some people told me that maybe the dyno was off, so im starting to believe that.
