I just wanted to make sure im clear on the mods/dyno. You say the cams/cam gears basically did nothing. So on the EMS, valve springs/retainers, intake, header and exhaust you made 245rwhp? I only ask because thats very impressive, and seems fairly easy to reach.

 

What is "Karner's old intake" like???

 

Is this the same Dyno that VTEC.NET got 240whp out of a stock 2004 S2000?

 

yes exactly.

remember that is 245 church dynapack hp his numbers are always higher than many other dynapacks. there is a reason for it, but I won't butcher the explination here. but the two lines are on his dynos so you can still measure the gain.

also the spring/retainers probably aren't required either but they're good piece of mind, on a street car I'd probably do AP2 retainers.

 

The graph states that the plotted values are flywheel horsepower & torque with a correction factor applied. the gains are still valid, but the numbers are misleading at first glance.

 

Sorta, not at the flywheel but at the hubs. 215 flyhweel hp is a wee low for a stock s2k. I probably have closer to ~275 fwhp.

The important fact is you can gain 30hp & 18ft-lbs with those mods.

 

Hey Ry, how many miles are on your engine?

 

its a race car. miles don't matter and maybe only 3-4k.

but its time that you care about since all its miles are full throttle 5-9k rpms this motor is old by race standards.

 

Yeah hehe

 

Oops. I guess the title of the graph is wrong then. Nice gains anyway you look at it though.
