The most modified car had a RacingBeat or other similar catback. I was pretty amazed that all cars came within a few hp of one-another...pretty consistant, (low/mid 180s) except for the 206whp car.

Yep, all he had were Greddy Stut Tower Braces and some coilovers I think. The engine and exhaust was stock.

Edit: I think "renwar1" needs to change his forum name to "206" :D One thing to remember, that was an un-corrected reading. The correction for our day was .96 to get an SAE reading I think... Chime in if I am off on that.

That'd still be 197 to 198.

I still wanna know how he did it? How come everyone else, including you with a couple mods, were only hitting 180's?

Was it ALL because of that straight pipe? I can't believe that'd add that much power. It just seems so weird he got so much more power.

NO, the straight pipe did not hit 206, it was "renwar1" that hit 206 bone stock because of his A/F ratio was leaner.

Shelby's car modded by fastmike with a straight pipe hit 190 something...

Ok fine, I'm still curious as to why a bone stock rx8 killed the rest of you so bad then, is he just special or something? Do you all have the M flash or are you on older flashes?

I need Dan and Darin to chime in, but the 206 car was on "M" flash - it's an oddity at best. What I think maybe happening, is the MAF is reading differently??, and his PCM is running a very safe leaned out curve because of this???

Notice the questions marks - I'm confused also.
