The right one is, but why the 4.5K rpm comment, nothing impressive about that really unless its a diesel, which it isnt!

Massive jump in torque, thats when the Vtec comes in

With no passengers and four tyres rather than eight - it's goes ok.

£2k wont get you that kind of power increase on a K20 - more like £4k when you factor in the K-Pro ECU, exhaust, induction and safety stuff like engine mounts etc.

Less than $3k with the K-pro too

I followed around Donington a UK CTR - maybe it was stock, maybe it had some mods - who tf knows - anyway, I think it was stock because it was slow. I mean dog slow.

Yeah that was pretty crap. I went past him like the minis. Driver more than the car I think

Also are they from the same engine as Merlins? Because the before HP is way down on what it should be producing in the first place, again amplifying any increase to be more than it is in real terms. Obviously if they are sourced from another car completely then my points irrelevant

Nice bit of kit tho Merlin

Power is at the wheels I believe

Dip is probably for emissions / economy on some standard OEM test
