what about a dohc???? i know its 150 at the crank, but what about the wheels???
I have seen a dyno of a stock DOHC neon that was about 120 or so. The 150 was over rated from the factory. I'll see if I can find the chart.

The lines were smoothed out for easier comparison. But it was on the same dyno on the same day. Only about a 10 WHP difference between the two
