Default Got a dyno today and...

It was a Dynojet and did 3 runs. The tuner said it might be bad gas, coz of the power curve. 100% stock 2003 w/133,000 miles.

Dynos mean nothing without a benchmark, it might as well say "1" or "1000", if that makes you feel any better.

Have any idea of the numbers other stock S2000's put down? Without that, it's just a number.

Could be about right depending on how that dyno reads normally. Like someone else mentioned gotta see what other s2k's put down on that dyno.

How much would have made you happy? 240 crank = 204@ 15% drive train loss and 192@ 20% loss on a car that is 8 years old and 133000 miles. Were you expecting 300? 240? Even expecting 90% of what a brand-new 204 is 180 whp.
