How many kw atw doe DC5R and DC2R make?
My standard 6A12 MIVEC (exhaust only) did 112.4kw at the front wheels. This is a 1994 engine.
But with all honesty I would have to say I would pick a VTEC over a MIVEC none the less. And like HRD2BQT said it's mainly due to aftermarket parts.
Stock DC2R should at least get 90-95kw atw
Stock DC5R should at least get 95-100kw atw
that's base on AUTO SALON dynoshootout on 4th gear.
What about the 1.6L engine in the Nissan Pulsar VZ R N1? It has 197 hp (146.9 kW) from the factory. (just to add a little fuel to the fire)
i wonder what a typeS would have at the wheels since they have 154kw at the motor :)
Is Type S better than Type R?
It's different. Type R, the R stands for Racing. The body is lightened, thinner windscreen, racing bucket seats and such. With the Type S, the S stands for Sport. The interior is more comfy (with leather all around), and the suspension is probably a little bit softer for comfort.
here we go boiz

As far as more powerfull 1.6 production cars are concerned, why is this so much of an issue? 1.6 MIVEC makes 131 kw and 168 nm of torque. A B18C7 DC2R engine makes 141 kw and 172nm of torque. Compare the two, and I think it is the VTEC which is pathetic not the MIVEC. Is a B16B more torque'y than a 1.6 MIVEC? I doubt it. Yes, a B16B equiped car will be quicker I think than a MIVEC car, but make ALL THINGS equal (weight, gear ratio's, driver etc) And I think VTEC will have a nasty surprise[/QUOTE]
which 1.6 mivec makes that?
Ohh wow, a 1.8L engine has more torque than a 1.6L engine? Never would have guessed that. But have a look at it, the 4G93 only makes an extra 10nm from a 200cc capacity advantage. And then when you consider the B16A is pushing through a much shorter final drive.... Torque at the wheels the B16A will be in front due to the shorter gear ratio.Quote:

And considering a the 4G92 MIVEC with the same capacity as the B16A makes MORE torque than the 1.8...
Anyway PhatSol, if you notice my posts above I said ALL THINGS BEING equal and I stated gear ratios as one of them. And there is no need to add sarcasm to posts, this is a discussion not a childish arguement.
Pornstar it's the 4G92 MIVEC, 131kw and 168nm of torque. Which also makes more torque per litre than any VTEC Honda engine (I have to admit though I don't know the torque rating for the S2000 and JDM DC5R). Same with the 6A12 MIVEC and I am sure it's the same deal with the 6G72 MIVEC
I think Honda people shouldn't automatically dismiss anything but that isn't VTEC
131kws from a 1.6 well i stand corrected, i thought the B16B outpowered anything mitsubishi...
**** mitsubishi owns, ima sell my honda and get a 4g92MIVEC lancer
b16a2 has 170NmQuote:
