Hi mates.....need some help, I've a b16a1 with y21 gearbox on my del sol....... I currently have ssp header, skunk2 inlet manifold and hondata headgasket, 63.5mm straight pipe and twin loop back box, exedy 9.5lbs flywheel and it was tuned on hondata...... It produces 181hp and 152nm, but to the wheels I only have around 120\125hp......
I believe that I'm loosing a couple hp on the engine mounts, can you give another option on where I can loose hp besides the engine mounts???

My clutch is a exedy stg1 or oem replacement for itr, it's almost brand new and I never felt it slip so I believe that it's not making me loose hp....... Maybe my driveshafts?????? Please tell me what you guys\gals think.... I'm not sure about how much hp I can regain, but if I only loose around 30\35hp to the wheels I'll be happy......

By the way I have my cam seal leaking, it don't have anything to do with my drivetrain lose or it has????

Thanks in advance.....
 
the flywheel hp figure is calculated from a wheels hp figure that's read by the dyno. So if your wheel hp was low, so would your flywheel hp...
 
Uhm so you're saying that my 120whp is the real power that I have and the 180 flywheel HP is an optimistic calculation? ???? And what do you think about the 60hp difference???? Can it be the dyno itself that make that difference so big????
 
Yeah that's my understanding of how it works.
Try another dyno....
