That is an engine dyno, not a chassis dyno. If you figure a 15% loss then you are looking at about 195 whp on a streetport. Not bad at all.

Kahren got 195rwhp out of his NA FC.. But he had a custom manifold. But... he also had a stock ECU/injectors. He said he could probably get over 200rwhp if he had bigger injectors. I bought a set of his porting "templates"

I would venture that it was teh more ECu holding him back than the injectors. I have heard more than a few people say that 460ccX4 is good for well over 200 whp.

He also said that he was leaning out in the higher RPM's. A couple 550cc secondaries probably couldn't hurt!

Again I think that is a function of the ECU not letting the injectors inject anymore fuel.


the ECU is the hold up there. If he gets 550's he is going to need some sort of fuel control anyway.

Naww.. just more air!!! Keep that fire triangle even. hehe.

Kidding aside, the RIGHT way of doing this doesn't include the stock ECU.... but he got 195 with it... and thats ******* impressive.

No 200whp n/as yet? I figured you guys would have gotten that by now.

Hell, I was trying that like 4 years ago. lol

I think adding a rotor works, prolly put down over 200. Australian dudes keep adding rotors all the time, they are all insane.

Midnight owl's got a point. Why not just add another rotor?
