It's nice to be important.....But it's more important to be nice.

You probably have a little more than 270. I wish I had a manual when I read things like this......I have 272.4 crank, but only registered 222 wheel. 1hp:10.74 That's $45,000 Lotus Elise territory.

According to that speed world site, 232whp is 274 to the crank.
edit: they are using a 18% drivtrain loss. I think that rwd. I think fwd is 15%

Here's where I got the numbers.....they were done in November of 2005 so they might have been for the 05s. http://www.sandsmuseum.com/cars/elis...rformance.html

I thought it went manual 14%-17%....automatic 18-21%....all wheel drive 22%-25%. I loss 18.5 percent from 272.4 to get 222wheel. 232 wheel without N20 is kick ass though. I bet driving in the rain sucks big time doesn't it? The people behind me are allways riding my ass when I take off...and I'm like, "If I don't ease into it we're not going anywhere." You probably have that problem at all times don't you?
