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.
