If i have a type r and it reads 240whp and ill start to investigate... Dyno or my car?

I know you can ask speedlab on this one, the local civic turbo is 173whp stock on our conditions. Really close to the 174hp brochure. So maybe honda is under rating their cars? Who knows, fact is dyno charts dont lie especially if there are 4+ dyno read outs backing up each other.

240whp is good enough from 300hp at the crank, that's a loss of 20%. The WRX is rated around 220-230whp.

173whp from the Civic RS? How much does it make at the crank?

Civic 1.5T,

Rated 174hp by honda
Dynoed around the world from 170whp-180whp bone stock. Any time, any day. Local result is 173whp by speedlab.

New CTR, rated 305hp by honda on brochures(crank?)
Dynoed around the world as seen on YT vidz, around 290-305whp stock.

^^the small difference is dun papasok ung factors as mentioned by sir Niky like fuel grade, humidity, temp, altitude, dyno condition, break in method, etc...

I understand your rule of thumb "20%" loss in powertrain, etc,etc. BUT as we can all see. It doesnt apply in these new Hondas.
