The difference of 4 HP between japan and North America due to « emissions regulations » could be as simple as adjusting the redline a bit, which would change max power on a high revving engine.

Anyone saw other data points ?
I'm surprised no one has done this yet. Plenty of online HP calculators. A 13.5 CR gets you 252hp. Who wants to be the head gasket delete mod guinea pig?
