Feel free to correct me if im wrong, anyone.


Maybe you're right Dawgz...but it doesn't matters that much if so because you down shift and retreive yourself in the mid to high end quickly where you got more power than stock. The question will be surely answered when we'll get some numbers from JPP + SS setup with Jeff drag race...or maybe some dyno runs if they can reproduce street environment.

lol



Hey King you were agreed with me or laugh at me ?

I just re-ajust the scale of what 50 whp can be with my 62 bhp

^ lol...kinda both really....

basically, on a forum, there's no need to even mention bhp since we all know that bhp means nothing in real life....

and yet it's sad that we have to use bhp numbers outside of the car community or else everybody would get laughed at when they tell the layman how much whp they are putting down

lol...though I suppose awd guys will either talk in bhp or how well their car handles around a track...since awd drive trains sap power like nothing else
HaHa

Well you make me cry King ! :cry: :P

I've use my own dyno experience...got 185 whp stock. Toyota claimed 225 hp (before the SAE formula changed) So I just talk of my 185/225 =0.82 so 82% make sense...more than 55%


I understand what you mean about the useless side of the bhp but general people talk that way...

I was simply using it to show how retarded the gains seem from swapping from one oem header to another.

Nice then we can say the Dynojet dyno in Zeke's shop (Montreal) and your place Dynojet dyno are equivalent. No matter the temp and altitude...correction factor taking care of it.

Now imagine some air induction aftermarket stuff...it would be really respectable even with a low 4-5 PSIg
