BHP is the same thing as crank horsepower....is what the engines power is at the motor/flywheel what the dealer specs are....WHP is the horespower that the car puts to the wheels....the WHP will be less than the BHP becuase of simple physics...energy is lost in the drivetrain (i.e transmission).....now with the flame....u dont need NOS to do it....ur car needs to run rich or a butane kit installed....wire a spark plug in ur muffler and u get the "flame" effect. IMO pretty fu(king gay.

WHP = Horsepower generated on a dyno with the drive wheels of a vehicle.
In general terms, WHP = BHP - Drivetrain parasitic loss.
2) No. If enough raw fuel is dumped into a superheated exhaust system, it will ignite and flames will emerge :> Watch endurance road racing...many cars spit flames off throttle.
