I was just wondering cause I'm skeptical of this BIG TIME ...

On page 66 of "Turbo & High-Tech and Performance" Oct. Issue. They do a review of 33 Kits.

This is what the grey box says (circled in Red on the right).

Now, the Question is are those dyno #'s accurate? The article does not make any mention of other mod's. What do you guys think?? One would think you can achieve this (from the article) with a Bone Stock Si and I don't think that's the case.

 

Well thats for the 99+Si B16 Right?

Then those #'s sound right.

 

Yupp, Than maybe there saying its Flywheel HP, not Wheel HP, a.k.a. "to the tires".

 

Thats the problem with a lot of stuff spread around on dyno test. You dont fully know the truth on engine mods and if its wheel or crank hp if they dont print it. I think a lot of times if companys help the mags out with stuff and it they are a big advertiser, they will make their product lookk better. I still will say that everyone should not totaly beleive what the read and hear even if its in a magazine. It doesnt mean its the whole truth.

 

yea thats bullshit man i read that mag and it said the gsr was making like 255 to the wheels at like 8 psi or so w/ the greddy kit. They must have crazy *** tuning to do that!

 

That's what Im saying ... P.76 got the GSR @ 7psi, 8.5w/intercooler .. 235.2, w/intercooler 255.6 hhmm..... Again no mention about Mods, just the IC stuff.

 

Yeah, I have that issue...it's shady.

 

All mags are shaddy. Its a business and the large companys like greddy pay to have there adds in there. Pay a little more, and we make your company look good.
