Search Results for ‘loss’

well i read in a mag that the 05 would put out less power than the previous years due to sae regulations. i was wondering if tht was true. ive looked everywhere and i just cant seem to find any stock dyno graphs for an 05 or previous years. i knw this is probably been discussed i jsut cant find...

I recently put a full quart into my car b/c i was a quart low. I went to San Jose like a week later. It's about an hour and a half away. I checked my oil today, and i'm at the bottom dot. Any ideas why? I have a V2 intake, I occasionally vtec. My oil filter is on tight, i park my car in my...

I just purchased a PRC (ITR) intake manifold and was talking to my friend about it. He mentioned that he had heard there is a loss of power if you add the IM without cams. I am hoping to have ITR cams (I know you can get more power with IPS/TODA but I wish to go the ITR route due to money)...

I searched and didn't find what I was looking for. With the v2 intake, or possibly an injen sri, WITH heaksoak, will you still have more power than stock? I know you lose power, but does the loss bring it back down to stock power, or even less? If it just bring its back down to stock numbers I...

Me and a buddy of mine were arguing to wether higher octane will cause a power loss to a car designed for regular fuel. My stance is that higher octane fuel such as 91 octane will not cause a car designed for 87 octane to lose horsepower, and it will not gain power at the same time. It'll simply...

like the title says, why is drivetrain loss a % of how much power the car makes, not a fixed number of HP? sorry if this seems stupid but the concept seems hard for me to understand. EX- a car losses 20 hp to the wheels stock, why would it loose more with double the power, the drivetrain has no...

I just dyno my car after six months of boost. The only changes were; i put the stock flywheel back in vs the 8lb act; dent in my intercooler with bent 3 rolls but no leaks; cracked manifold but got it rewelded; running open down pipe now vs 3 in exhaust; this time i ran 7psi instead of 8psi and...

Hi, I have a 2002 SSM Premium RSX. I added an Injen CAI and the header, cat and backpipe of a Type-S. Everything installed professionnaly. Never had any problems. But now, whenever I give significant gas whil turning left or right, I have a little loss of power at around 3500-3600 RPM...

i have apexi N1 and its too loud for me. im thinking about 05 S exhaust for replacement. what would be the power loss or gain? thanks for your comments.

Last year I had the car tuned and dyno and she made 280whp, went back again to have her tuned for 650cc injectors and I saw on the dyno 254whp. The only difference between last year and this year is I put a new clutch/LSD and flywheel and 650cc injectors. Now the dyno that I saw 280whp was a...

Someone please put me out of my misery. There was a recent thread http://forums.clubrsx.com/showthread.php?t=249500, which discussed a header crack. I have one, but have never thought it was necassary to fix due to its size. The thing is I kept asking 2 questions, with no avail. And search...

each time i have reset my ecu my car has not felt the same. i know that after reseting the ecu must relearn the parameters. some have said to drive your car hard so that it can learn more aggressive parameters (don't know the correct terminology). over time my car feels like it has more power...

yup wel after my exhaust install i feel as if there is a great loss of low end torque...is this normal? because i dont like it... whats a soultion to this issue, RH? did anyone else experience this? :dontknow: :(

A friend of mine has a highly modded Dakota R/T; after market internals and a supercharger. He thinks he's puttin about 450 to the wheels through an auto tranny (hasn't dyno'd it yet) and in turn gets his kicks when he does burnouts. I was riding with him once when he was burnin, and he...

my car feels like that it doesnt have that same power as it use to..could it be that the clutch is not gettin some power to the wheels?? if i go and get a stage 2 or 3 clutch will that make my car feel any better???

Well, i won't say names(unless he wants to speak up), but me and my tuner were talking about how this person lost about 25WHP using the same exact custom calibration made on a old version of k-manager, but uploaded using the newest version of the k-manager software. No changes were made to the...

I have a Greddy Turbo, with Test pipe and a greddy Evo Catback. I was wondering of how bad this exhaust is hidering my performance. Anyone have any idea of how much this is?? or if its a waste of money to replace the exhaust with say, the 3" from thermal. Thanks

I own a NBP 2004 RSX and it seems that there are already a few small portions of paint where it seems faded and appears rough...does anyone else notice this problem? I have a friend with a 2001 Type R and he is experiencing the same problems. Is this the clear coat coming off or what?

Okay. I'm a DSM owner, I drive a AWD 2g. I see you guys are having traction problems with boost. Me being AWD i dont halfto worrie about traction issues, but some of my buddies who have GST's do. Has anyone tryed a Dual Stage Boost Controler.. TurboXS has a real nice one that goes for aound 240$...
