I am not sure where they measured there power thus I said BHP, instead of power at the wheel (WHP) or at the crank.

UPdate: just reviewed the Envoy page it states 550 WHP so i will assume the 650 is is at the wheels

It's HP to the wheels. His car has a built motor, bigger turbo and he's running more boost than me because he is tuned on race gas. This is the guy whom I bought my turbo kit from. He owns a tuner shop in Brooklyn.

The flaw in that argument is unlike in the movies Mr. Miagy is also improving.

My best 1/4 mile time so far is 11.8 @ 123mph spinning all of first gear and some of second. That was when the weather was cold. I had my 2 step lowered to eliminate some of the wheel spin but now that it's nice and hot outside, the 2 step is too low, so the car bogs at the track. My tuner just opened his own shop in New Jersey so I will be paying him a visit next week.

As far as the motor goes, I'm keeping it a 2.0. The 2.3L is great on the street but it's not a great performer at the track because you can rev the 2.3 too high. If you notice all the 10sec and 9sec Evo's are all 2.0L.
