Quote: Posted by SurferX Damn you SCC for starting that! They do one stupid test of a DC header on a OBD1 and OBD2 car, find the OBD1 car made more HP and go write some big dumbass article on it. Put a header on ANY two of the same car OBD whatever it will NOT see the same gains. Plus they used a chassis dyno which are simply inaccurate. Changes in power could have been caused by anything including something as small as what tires the cars were using.Posted by Michael Delaney said:OBD2 has nothing to do with it...
again this is another urban legend started by that magazine actually....it's done nothing but a dis service to informing import enthusiasts...it's full of misinfo...
we have several obd2 vs obd1 threads here already that you can search and read...stop perpetuating the misinfo please,....
Yeah, that sounds like it came from the same SCC article. I don't beleave it =)BUT.... I've heard the thing is that when you modify an OBD2 it senses the mods and somehow retards or detunes itself to account for the new mofications
hmmm... yet i've pulled almost 20whp from simple bolt-on's (I/H/E/CamGears)... where's this de-tuning occuring?Justin95GSR on Aug/30/02 said:I've heard the thing is that when you modify an OBD2 it senses the mods and somehow retards or detunes itself to account for the new mofications.
