Default my car is weak.

this is from the dyno contest at nopi nationals, no tuning was done.

i have i/h/e, straight pipe, act xtss clutch, cm 8lb flywheel, aem cam gears
cam gears were set to +4 intake, -3 exhaust



any suggestions besides renting a dyno, getting a apexi s-afc, and getting around to installing my UR crank pulley that's sitting on my dresser?

edit:
i set the cam gears back to 0, 0 and it feels like it pulls better now.

for those who are having trouble reading it:
1st run: 145.0 hp, 140.4 ft lb
2nd run: 148.6 hp, 141.8 ft lb
3rd run: 153.4 hp, 144.6 ft lb

Your car is fine man. That's a nice power output for an H23A.

you do realize an si only puts out 160hp at the crank from the factory.

considering your motor is 10+ years old and making 153whp, that's pretty healthy.

Same here, a bone stock H22a4 puts down about 159whp, my SH does around 154whp. I'd be pretty happy with those results.

look at these!http://www.ntpog.org/dyno/index.shtml

yeah tune that exhaust cam gear down to -1.5 or -2, +3 on the intake... You are probally bogging a lil down low. You don't need to over5 lap them that bad.. I had the same problem On my h22a...retuned em and hell yeah I felt the difference...
