MIVEC on a dyno!?
Im currently thinking about fitting the MIVEC 4G92 into a lancer cc model.
130kw's and a 8500rpm redline really got my attention.
I found out for a fact that car companies, when dynoing there new engines for the first time, use 'cheat tricks' to sqeeze out a few extra kw's out of the engine but in normal drivability in a car is much less. For eg -
for those of you that know about the 4AGE 20V engine for toyota's would know that they are 119kw factory rated. But this is only what toyota claim! Put one of these on a dyno and you will see no more than 108kw's!
Which is still alright but i would want to believe that the engine im buying is what they say it is and not discover later on that it has less kw's!
So would just like to know if anyone has put they're MIVEC 4G92 on a dyno or if they've seen one on a dyno and if they have papers to prove that they r 130kw's to go ahead and post.
And please dont tell me to consider forced induction as this is totally out of option as i want to have one of the qikest naturally asp motors with a few more extra mods to add to it.
If you know anything about with what i am asking or if u just have a story or 2 about these motors...post away!
Thanks
