Question We need Dyno runs on non-US and low-powers

Request: Can those outside the North American market and those in the US with the automatic have the rear wheel horsepower measured?


So far all I've seen is dyno graphs on US 6MT (hi-power) cars. I would love to see charts on the lower power and non North American version to see if at least the "power deficient" is consistent.

Yeah, and be careful about mentioning it around the English boys, they're gettin' restless.

Don't mean to get off topic or tick you off but the Mazda dealer by me has 4 sitting in the show room. None of them are spoken for. If I had the cash I could drive away with one tonight.
