    so upgrading to a heavy duty clutch & lightened flywheel will reduce the drivetrain loss?

    no. a drive train loss is considered to be power lost in the gearbox and such. nothing can be done about it. you will always get a drivetrain loss. your car is fine. my advice would be to switch to a good cai and a high flow cat. often the cat is the most restrictive part of an exhaust system

    what he said.

    the clutch and flywheel will loss power cost of the weight and the friction. also anything from the flywheel to the wheel, anything moving will "steal power"

    so that is why we have lighten flywheel and lighten pulley.
    less rotational mass= less power loss

    120hp atw is approx 85kw which is what u should b expecting... nothin unnormal... i been 2 a dyno day n dc2's with similar mods were all getting similar power. Obviously the K's r a factor and u can never really trust a dyno, im sure u can go alsewhere, on a colder day n easily pull another 10+ hp.

    An SRI is not always the best for a dyno run so don't expect much of a power hike. Your figures are equal to a stock DC2 so don't be concerned. I've run 89 and 96 kw atw on different dynos which equals approx 120 hp atw.

    The very obvious and only correct answer in this thread is right below courtesy of Paul.
