prob bout 100-110atw
100-110 if your lucky you lose a fare bit through the drivetrain
since its a dc5r... 105-110 easily...
100-110
Isn't drivetrain loss roughly 30%???
Usually if you subtract 30% from stated kw figure you get pretty close to atw kw's.
my lude lude has 147kw at the fly and on the dyno it put out 114.7kw at the wheels which is a 22% loss in power from engine to wheels which is reasonable.
even if the dyno was a bit optimistic id say at least 110kw @ the wheels :thumbsup:
Different Dyno's read differently, but you'd be looking at between 102 - 116 (102 being the lowest i've seen, same dyno same day I saw another stocker pull 109, 116 is the highest I've seen pull at another dyno)
Stock loss is too hard to calculate, and is different for every vehicle....

My dc5r pulled 107, with a k&n drop in, changed to an sri and pulled 120 on a different dyno, now I know that there is no way an intake can make that much difference, so this is just here to illustrate the point that each dyno is different
basicaly every motor is different, wether asembled by the same person , parts differ in weight ect, and as long as they are within a certain range honda uses them , so some people end up with freak motors they make 10-15kw more than that of a engine that runs to spec, it all about luck of the draw buddy , but as i said above 100-110 kw would be you best bet
i say 100kws atw... cos a stock dc2r is 90kws atw
who told u that?Quote:
