Maybe you thought high torque would add to your torque # on the dyno?

I run a 15:1 motor and I’ve been using a beat up old OEM starter for the last 2 years now. It turns a little slower but starts up fine.

I have one on my car now and it works great. Only reason I have it is because someone gave it to me, but my car does start easier with it.

i heard that when you're boosting in vtec and you crank the starter, the car gets an additional 50 HP boost from the extra torque delivered from the HIGH TORQUE starter.. Is this true? If so, I"m going to get two so I can double the benefits..
