Ok so i have a bet going with a friend of mine and it is no big deal but we would both like to know. On the dohc zc there has been alot of debate on the horsepower rating as some say 130 hp and others say 137 hp so what is it people.

 

lol, 137? wishful thinking. 127 maybe

 

Its 130, I was readin in another post somewhere about the D16a9, which is rather similar to the dohc zc and ppl were sayin that it the a9 has 137. **** i wouldnt know though, crazy european *** motor.

 

With a 9.6 CR, a healthy motor should be able to pull off ~105 after drivetrain loss. But this is only my opinion, I have no factual evidence, but I would say that is pretty close. Also, I have yet to see a true baseline dynograph on a DOHCZC, but then again I haven't looked. - Darrell

 

here is dyno chart of stock (I-H-E) DOHC ZC comparing stock PM6 ECU and Mugen chipped PM6 ECU

 

Well most JDM motors are rating on the Japenese version of power which is PS. I dunno if this is like a metric system or what but it reads a little higher. With say a 1st gen b16a is rated at 160 ps in the us version is actually reads around 153 hp. So I'd day your jdm zc is actually gonna be about 126 hp.

PS = Pferdstärke = Horsepower auf Deutsch

 

Remember there are lots of diffrent types of power.

BHP, HP, JIS HP (Witch Japan engines commonally are), KW, PS and others...

Wasnt the diffrence in the ECU and the Euro one didnt have a cat??? maybe that makes up the 7hp diffrence.

 

my last crx with i/h/e and computer was 89 integra (dont remember the code)
dyno'd 121 hp at the wheels. 130 sounds right stock.

HP = .98632 x PS
