Back to the original topic: How come the Acura RSX Type-S only dyno's 167 peak horsepower at the wheels? My SVT Focus dyno's about 150 peak hp at the wheels, so the RSX is only 16 more horsepower than my SVT? Hmm....I was expecting 180hp at the wheels on a 200hp rated engine. What do you guys think?

Good for you and your future plans!
The K20C has far more torque in all RPM ranges and is faster than the B18C3. I don't understand how being "race proven" has anything to do with which is a better engine. Where are these quotes by Mr. Jackson? Where are the dynos at the crank that proves his point? Do you have any real facts, or are you just going to continue to pull things out of your ass?
The 1.8 is race proven engine HELLO!!!!!!!!!! I told you I spoke with Oscar Jackson PERSONALLY, obviously no quotes! He basically said he was dissappointed in the RSX Type S dyno results they pulled in and when they engineered their supercharger for the car they said the motor was crap. I believe him over you anyday!
I have something funny for you: There is no 200HP Honda Integra in Japan. There's a 160HP Integra iS and a 220HP Integra Type-R. You, sir, are a moron. And I guess Jackson is too if he claims there is a 200HP Integra in Japan.
He said the 220hp Type R really does dyno in at 220hp at the crank, the US version of the RSX Type S does not dyno at the advertised 200hp at crank.
And no, I call you stupid because you're wasting your time and you're talking out of your ass.

Theres your link you moron. These are real numbers from real people from "real-life" cars. And one thing you actually stated correctly: From 200hp engine - 180's after a loss to the wheels. You have been ****in'
