Hi all,
Completely forgot about this report so I've dug it out to share. This is after they'd removed the Skunk2 inlet but with the Greddy box in place.
It's all Greek to me but in your opinion, does it show good, average or mediocre performance from my engine?
If you'd be so kind to take a quick look at the print out and give an opinion, I'd be really grateful. Thanks so much, Si.

Can you post your Specs here? Saves us time if we don't know it.
Kg/m ..? Will have to look into that

What I can say is the graph looks nice except the dip at 5100 . AF ratio looks pretty ok to me too..

116 ft lb.
1 ft lb = 0.13825 kg m.

Seems off considering yours is a 2.2, Simon.

Wondering if this is WHP then? Would put it at around the right sort of figure.

Hi guys -@gb-lude, sorry mate but what do you mean by 'specs'?
@Donald, hey you, long time no speaky. Sorry Donald but what is WHP?
Sorry guys, I do apologise but I'm not fluent in this stuff, as you can see.

Yeah it looks to be wheel HP, otherwise it is well down on power.


@simonc Is it a UK or JDM car you have?

Hi @Merlin. It's a JDM.

I take it you have not chipped it? If you haven't I would recommend it. It removes the VTEC limiter in 1st gear, removes the 112 speed limiter, lowers VTEC a little and smooths out power delivery. It should reduce that dip in torque right before VTEC engages

Hi @Merlin and thanks for that. I hear what you're saying but I don't know if you've followed some of the disasters I've had when upgrading my car out here.
Every time something has been added it's created a whole raft of problems due to slipshod and let's-bodge-it methods of work out here.
To be honest everyone, she's running like a dream as far as I'm concerned, it's powerful enough when I need to drive around trouble here in the city as well as providing VTEC thrills a-plenty on my regular blasts to Singapore. I'm grateful for your direction but I think I'll keep her as she is as she's brilliant in the current form.
Appreciate your comments guys. Thanks, Si.

Si get a chipped jdm p13 from the UK, there always popping up for sale. You could fit it yourself in about 10 minutes.

Hi Si,
With the specs I mean the engine code and modifications you have done.

We all know the horsepower of standard engines and the fact they lose about 1 or 1/2 a horse every year due to engine wear and contamination if not maintained well.

Adding performance parts to your car will increase horsepower. But you can not just ad them up.
Parts have to work " together" and to make sure they do you have to adjust the engine management.
Custom mapping of tuning is the best but a modified chip like Merlin suggests is the best next thing.

I am interested in what you have done to the engine. And I am sure if you have it tuned properly you will like it even more!!
