Default 10k = .4ths = huh

If anyone has been to the bookstore they have seen the Hy-Tech RSX in Motor Trend. 105 more HP and only .4 ths to show for it? Not that it's a drag racer but even the JDM ITRSX has done it in 14.1 stock for Best Motoring

Am I missing something ?

What they said.

Just looking at peak/final numbers doesnt mean **** 95% of the time.

not to mention the method of measurment used. It wasn't a beam setup like at any 1/4 track.

Not quite sure about final numbers but the hytech posts on http://www.vtec.net talk about road racing and killing bmw m5's

i wouldnt doubt it gets like 9lbs per HP ratio thats ******* insane.
