I`ve had this discussion on the pulsar owner club. A standard Almera GTi has around 115-120whp where as modified Pulsar SSS`s appear to have less.

They use a lower compression highport engine which obviously produces less power......maybe lower octane fuel as well.
 
Ooooohh, I see! just didnt understand why 110bhp was so "massive"! I'm not saying its bad you have that much power lim, you have alot more than me :O just wondered!
 
My mildly modified GTi is producing 134 WHP which is nothing to write home about, but a noticeable difference over standard.

cheers
 
also can some one check if they have a barcode on the rocker cover?
barcode = high compression JDM engine
 
UK dyno's are also calibrated differently. Not as far out as American dynos(which assume 10% drivetrain loss) but Australian & Japanese dynos factor in 25% drivetrain loss for a FWD, 36% for an AWD and 30% for a RWD. I think UK dynos use about a 20% drivetrain loss, so rowdy GTi is actually getting some very good numbers when compared to US cars :D

Lightweight flywheels can also increase WHP on a dyno as the reduce torque loss. There is an article about it on the sr20forums.
