4000rpm 135hp 146hp
4500rpm 170hp 178hp
5000rpm 187hp 204hp
5500rpm 200hp 212hp
6000rpm 215hp 237hp
6500rpm 215hp 246hp
7000rpm 212hp 245hp
Significant increase above 6000 but also Increase in hp throughout the range. Torque increase also throughout the range.
I agreed that I would rarely get up in the higher range on the streets, but I would during track days and maybe even autocrosses.
So if it feels more powerful, sounds more powerful and dynoed more powerful, it's not more powerful?

HUH?????!?!?!?! A base dyno of someone elses car on some other day does nothing for comparison. Each engine will act/react differently depending on all sorts of factors such as temperature, mileage, and dyno used among other things. Now...i'm not a rocket scientist...but I do understand that in order to "compare" anything you must keep the variables AS SIMILAR AS POSSIBLE. Otherwise...your numbers are just that...numbers.
