And 1lb. of tq and 8hp does make a significant difference when you consider the vehicle's power-weight/ratio as well. But then again, who knows? That's why man created the dyno... hehehe-but in the end, i think the GE still has shawty brakes FTL

when did a stock ge beat a hks gd? granted a hks gd on a base tune is 'peppy' rather than fast, but the ge vs gd, stock to stock is not worlds faster than a gd. 1lb ft of torque and ivtec make for a smoother daily driver, but the slight gain in power is offset by the slight gain in weight. just do the math. ( i have, i'm always comparing power to weight ratios.)

O WAIT!!! they did...

Fail

It's called an EP3

Fail.

Do GD owners just come to the GE section to bash the car and owners? Sounds like a desperate cry for attention.

The ge engine produces 117 hp and the gd's engine produces 109hp. which is a 7.3% increase. which, in theory, anything that increases the gd engine's power, should increase about the same with the ge. makes sense to me, but I am no engineer or physicist...
