every car is like that, its the difference between wheel horsepower and crank.seems bit on low side..but than again these mazda's are notorious for putting lower #'s than mazda claims.

idk about all that..i have heard of srt4's and evo's dynoing at or atleast close to the manufacturers claimed hp #'s.
i remember reading about a bunch of mazda rx8 owners getting a class action law suit agains mazda for flase hp # claims.

I would love to see a baseline run of a stock EVO putting down 280whp.
he was referring to acid. but you are both correct anyway. the rx8 buyers were offered a buy back because of the low hp numbers compared to what was advertised. but thats because a crank dyno showed much lower numbers on the production models too.If your refering to me your mistaken. Look at the quote I posted.. The 202hp figure is stock WHP and the 271hp figure in quotes is stock crank HP...
