Maybe because you have duals on not such a high powered car? I don't know, I think I've read something like that before, but I dont think you would lose that much hp.
Originally posted by GroundZero112 this is embarrasing and it disgusts me
i put out 115whp on an h22a1
all the other h22's were putting out about 140's
that IS embarrasing ! my h23 is also runnin rich, along with 170k miles, i have i/h/e (single) and i m puttin down 141 at the wheels with no tuning. I doubt dual exhaust would make you lose that much power ( we r talkin bout 60 horses lost here), so either you got a lemon engine, or, you got something major goin on. Altho i m shocked at the fact that the other h22s were in the 140s also. h22 instantly have about 25 more horses then h23, so it really doesnt make sense for you guys to be where i m at ! keep us posted on the problems and solutions you might find, i m really interested in this. I d like to find out what is causing such a drastic power loss.
good luck.

Duals could well be the problem, I doubt very much if you are getting enough back pressure through your exhaust system.
Think of it like this, get a hose and put it in a bucket of water, suck, water comes through easy - now increase the size of the hose - it might be easier it might be harder - you'll get to a point where you won't be able to suck any water through.
Ok now, add two hoses n try, I'd be sorting that zorst out first.
I heard on RS that your car had a compression check done and the numbers were fuxored. These were guys planning to buy that very same car. Did you ever do your own compression check? Bent valves? Oh yeah this is Ryan I called about your clutch kit before but you didnt wanna lower down your price. Anyways, I heard you were stoked about the results sorry man.
And yes it was a mustang dyno. It was a dyno dynamics dynamometer.
no my compression was 200 across the board
honda did it
and i took it to another mechanic a year after
it was still 200 across the board
those guys lied and i know for sure the guy that sold it to me took real good care of it.
