What almost everybody seems to miss in this thread is the idea, once again, of a much broader hp, and torque curve. It's great to have a direct injection enhanced 2.0L engine that can make 200, flywheel hp, but it only does this for a tiny range of rpm in each gear. - Same applies to torque numbers. This type of boost system, will produce above peak factory numbers, in a much broader range than the stock, N/A system could ever hope to make, and simulates the over-all output of a much more powerful engine in daily driving, and actual measured performance numbers. It's the total area under the curve that pushes the car down the road. It's already beat flywheel numbers in peak whp, and it completely destroys the stock out-put curves in torque and hp along the way! In most ways, this system could knock off a revised stock version of the car that put out 230 whp at something like 8500rpm! What more could you guys want for $1500-1800 car mod?I can't think of anything that might even come close.
