You say you dynoed 223.8 hp at the crank, not wheels, and the official hp is 218 I believe. In your case you are getting very little hp increase for the $$$ invested. Something is wrong in both cases maybe.
How does somebody get the hp at the crank without taking the engine out? You even quote fractions of a hp. Any figures have got to be obtained using some percentage for losses and that is not an exact science.
youre right, i should have been more specific, my wheel horsepower was 194.6 , i did this in tucson arizona, which is above sea level , and it was 69 degrees outside, this was done on a portable dyno, my 0-60 time has always been around 7 seconds, which seems appropriate for my elevation, do you think perhaps my car is running slightly off? i did eurocharge it after all and add the bigger MAF, currently running srt penzoil engine oil as well
