I'm interested in your dynos! As I said, most dynos that I've seen have shown the HP drop compared to stock when under about 6k RPM. I wonder why yours show an increase across the board.

One of the side-effects of these forums is that you have a whole lot of people with numbers, stories, and experiences that weren't in controlled situations, so its not that scientific and you have wildly varying results.

I wish the following:
1. I could speak Japanese
2. I could call up a Honda engineer and get the word from their multi-million dollar R&D department on all of the above and more.
