Okay, seriously now...
I've calmed down.



You don't need to be a physicist like me to know that putting a Honda engine into an RX-8 is a lesson in futility.

Why can't you understand such a simple concept?

I'm going to be hopeful and suggest that maybe the dyno graph is indicating that they did not start WOT until the point it spikes.

Either way, I would not want to deal with a FWD like that. Any car with significant power should be RWD or AWD, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm hurt! I'd like to imagine that my post was intelligent! I basically said the same thing with a little less detail.

I thought the same thing, with all the stuff that was going down he probably just forgot to give you credit where it's due.

It looks like the dyno started before 3.5K. To get that power level out of a box of Cracker Jacks requires a large turbo so that spike is probably where it finally started to spool up. Put that thing in 5th gear at freeway speeds and floor it. I'll bet it never hits boost!

Alnielsen is wrong.

I mean, what are you talking about? These "Honda is da **** y0" boys have more than enough dough you can possibly imagine. Honda engines are the best! cost 5 bux to get one and you can get 500-600 hp out of box, no modification required. WIN!

He's probably over on a Honda forum right now complaining about our lack of enlightenment over wanting to put a superior, yet less powerful engine in the car so it can be boosted to make more power.
