Wierd Noise?
OK 1st i will say hi newbie to Hondas and the S2K
The noise we heard tonight was like 2 second whine repaeting every10-15 seconds
I got under the car traced to the middle under the tank i could feel the vibration in the fule lines as the noise appeared.
After some head scratching undid the fule filler cap to release pressure and the noise has gone??
Any ideas what the whine was?? a valve or something
Cheers in advance if you have an answer Liam

237 with 16.5% trans is 200bhp. engine bhp is always a 'guess' as they normally multiply the output using their 'guestimate' of the trans losses.
To me, dyno's are pointless unless you are tuning an engine and/or comparing different set-ups etc.
The headline figures that people are after are too subjective unless they run them straight off the engine. ATW is actually more important as that's what you really have going through the wheels, however the numbers aren't so good for pub talk. This results in many dyno places telling the customer what they want to hear, they just up the trans loss figures
Also, no two dynos are the same so one may give you 200bhp, another 190, another 210 etc. Also there are other factors in play, ambient temps, what sort(+ quality) of fans blowing air in etc.
