1994 Acura Integra LS - Power Pages
Text By Gary Castillo, Photography by Arnold Eugenio
ConclusionThe further along we get on our Power Pages, the more we realize it isn't just about peak horsepower gains. Often a part will have little or no effect on the peak numbers but have a drastic effect on shifting the power curve upwards in other regions. Our Integra seems to have been fitted with parts just like this. Starting with an original baseline of 105.5 hp and 99.1 lb-ft of torque, it's obvious that a few bolt-on parts (and a date with the engine refresher) allowed it to come a long way. While peak horsepower and torque changes are evident (22.7 more hp and 22.0 lb-ft of torque), it's the scope of change within the first and last dyno graphs that are the most revealing. Power and torque gains are easily identifiable in the charts and in seat-of-the-pants driving. To that effect, be on the lookout for a new and improved version of Power Pages that emphasizes maximum power and torque gains rather than peak readings of the same. We're sure this information will be more useful to everyone aspiring to higher levels of tuning.
