Your B16A dyno results?

**Setanta** · 07-11-2003 06:39 AM

79.8KW with no mods and a stuffed catalytic convertor @ Croydon using a JDM B16A1.

My guess is that about 83-85 is what a stock B16A should put out. Most Yanks are full of shit when it comes to pulling dyno slips out.

As noted, I don't believe dyno results as they are never the same and the operators can fudge them.

Adrian, you forgot to mention that the dyno was performed in 3rd gear! I got very similar results with my car in 3rd.

I would expect a b16a to produce around 80kw atw in 4th. Becuase if u compare a 95+kw atw readout to the thread on the sr20de vs b16a, there would be no competition. the sr20de produces around 70-75kw atw, and supposidly a race with one of these guys produced only a small win. Hence a 95kw reading is utter misinformation. Sorry, had to be said!

I thought they were all done in 4th ..
i will have mine dynoed when i get my full exhaust fitted.

Dyno runs should be done in fourth.
gearing is 1 to 1 in fourth.
If im wrong o well.

Actually its more like 0.90xxx, but comparing to 3rd which is usually 1.2xx its a better estimate of power.

So what is the difference in their HP..... and figures like our 1hp = .745 kw?

1hp = 0.746kw wherever you go, its a standard unit of measurement. The difference is that yank dynos tend to be more optimistic then our dynos are.

dyno figures are sooooooooooo easy to fudge its not funny
