Ever figure that the 19bhp figure is wrong? Did you even think about how the hell can 5whp give you 19bhp? Yeah, that's right.

We already pointed out that your figure of 3.8x is totally whack. Why are you still assuming that the 19bhp is right?

Or the 5whp figure is wrong, something is wrong. There is no way there can be more than 300% differences between whp and bhp.

And what do you mean 24whp is only going to add 4bhp?. It is 28bhp. Your logic is confusing the crap out of me.

Its not wrong. Is the sport 331 hp? Is the nismo 350? Difference of 19 hp. That has been dynod as approx. 5 whp from people who have put on a nismo exhaust on a sport. So thats where my info is comin from...

It would add more than 4 hp to the 24 whp that is dyno'd.

It's not adding 4hp, it's adding 28.........

Its 24whp or 28bhp. Take your pick.

Again, it looks like you're basing your "facts" off that 19bhp 5whp BS. There is no f'ing way that 19bhp is only going to give you 5whp, that is a factor of 3.8x like someone mentioned. If i had a 300whp care and converted with that 3.8 factor, my god..... I'm pretty sure there is more to that 19bhp than an exhaust. You're getting the 5whp from just an exhaust, or converted roughly to 6bhp.

Nevermind its over your head. My point was, if the gain of 5 whp or 19 bhp shows a difference of 14, how does 24 whp have a 28 bhp, having a difference of only 4. Get it?

It's not over my head, I'm saying that 5whp and 19bhp is bs. OMFG!!!!

5whp only nets you 6bhp.

You don't even need to find the thread, how the hell can 5whp give you 19bhp? that's nearly 400% increase. Like someone mentioned earlier, if i had a 300whp car, and do 400%, i have a f'ing 1200bhp monster. Yeah that sound right to you? NO!

AGAIN listen, that 5whp is probably just exhaust, there are other things that probably give the NISMO an edge ok? Engine tune would probably be one, I'm not sure of the differences between NISMO and non NISMO, it's obviously more than a damn exhaust.

You obviously have horrible reading comprehension, so let me break it down for you.

19bhp or 15.77whp difference from NISMO vs non NISMO probably includes:
(again, I'm not sure of the differences between the NISMO vs non NISMO in terms of what gives it that extra 19bhp, if someone can chime in on that, it would solve a lot of problems)

engine tune
exhaust
other crap

the 5whp YOU got is just from non NISMO + exhaust, you're missing 10 whp, and that is probably from the other crap + engine tune. GET IT?

Unless you find an example of a NISMO and a Sport run back to back on a given dyno, your numbers will mean nothing. From what I've been able to read, I've seen a larger difference in HP. The only post of a 5 hp spread I've seen back to back was between the standard and the automatic. Generally (since every dyno gives differnt numbers) I've seen non-nismos usually hit in the 275 range and nismo usually hit around the 290 range just going from memory. That would yield a 15 hp diff at the wheels and about an 18 hp diff at the crank assuming an 15% drivetrain loss.
