@Ryanbenedict2007, Mine made 485whp and 371wtq on 20 psi on 91oct. But I also have a cnc ported head, and a bigger Turbo. Why did you only make 493 on race gas? Did you just not want to push the motor?

[Ryanbenedict2007]

@te37drift we stopped when I shattered an oil pump on the dyno, caused by a shitty aftermarket pulley. I wanted to make sure it was fine after that, didnt push it, it was still my daily driver..

@chrisa913 so what. honda's are light as hell. if we made a lot of torque than the car woud just spin tires. we don't need a lot of torque. just because it is needed for one thing doesn't mean it's true for everything. it's like the diference between v8's and 4 cylinder's. one makes globs of power down low and the other is better at the top end. you wouldn't drive them the same.

@chrisa913...tq is pretty irrelevant at high rpms for vtec motors...our motors flow way better than VW motors..that's why VW motors only have tq! No horsepower and we make more power at a lower psi than VW does. And it takes too much psi on VW to make horsepower
