Nope, just standard common sense. If a CRX Si weighs ~1900 lbs, and has 108 HP, with shorter gears, and my car weighs around 1900 lbs also, is less aero, and has longer gears, I must have more power, considering that my engine is smaller than that of an Si, but has pretty close to the same torque curve in stock form.
The fact that I can only beat said car by a few feet, (~half car) tells me that I don't have alot more horsepower than that car, since we're both still sub-95mph in the 1/4 mile.
Based on that, I ESTIMATE around 115-120HP from my engine. Issue?

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
