Its probably crank horsepower.

There was a guy with full J's bolt ons and he barley gained 15rwhp (around 215rwhp). How the hell could spoon get another 60rwhp?!

Only F20C engine I've seen actual dyno graphs for is the inlinepro 2.7 liter or whatever it was making 265 (or was it 275) rwhp.

Hello? because it's JDM and is prepared by one of the JDM Tuner Gods - Spoon. No further explaination is necessary.

Spoon Carbon-Kevlar Air Guide
Spoon Radiator Hoses
Spoon Exhaust Manifold
Spoon N1 Exhaust System

First of all, I agree, why is a NA car in 'Turbo' magazine? Second of all, what would all of these mods cost us to have done to get 275 WHP?

Where did you see the dyno plot of the 2.7L monster? There hasn't been an update in the 2.7L buildup thread in the JDM forum for quite some time.

Arite I finally read the article earlier today. The engine is a rebuilt with head polish and high-lift camshafts. That's all there is to pick out from the article regarding engine work.

Yeah, a bit ironic.

I call on the 275 rwhp. Crank hp, yes. RWHP, not a chance in hell, unless they stroked it and upped the compression into the 13's. I seriously doubt Spoon did that. Most of their products are JDM bling, no go. The spoon header has been proven to loose 4-5 horsepower across the board. The N1 gets that back with a few to spare, which leaves the spoon tuned ecu and their balanced engine to come up with the other 70 horses?? I don't buy it. Lets see the dyno.
