Here's some runs I made on the dyno today. I went with a buddy who has a civic Si with the new K24. He was quite pleased that he put down 180/150 hp/tq. I couldn't believe it and with how light it is he can almost hang with me.

Anyway, here's some dyno runs: 1st run I'm not posting. It was a 4th gear pull and I hit the speed limiter before I ran out of RPMs. All other runs were 3rd gear pulls, sometimes with only a few minutes between them, no fan blowing on front of car. Numbers seem consistent with what I see on the internet for bone stock cars.

1st Pull


2nd Pull


3rd Pull - The civic gained a tiny bit of power by opening the airbox, so I gave it a shot. No gain for me


4th Pull - This time I put a K&N drop in filter to see what would happen (I know, I know, but I was curious). It does seem to flow better as you'll see in some graphs below. Anyway, here's the drop in by itself:


And now, a combination graph of the K&N versus the 1st and 2nd stock pulls, respectively. Notice how there is a distinct torque increase between 3800 and 6k due to what I'm guessing would be better flow, but torque suffers down low:






It was a lot of fun at the dyno and brought back memories of the SRT. This dyno was spot on too. The back to back stock runs in the civic were within 1.5/1.5 hp/tq and mine weren't too far off that.
