That sounds about right for power. It doesn't appear that you were tuning, just doing a dyno run to see where you were at.

A lot influences power though. Coolant temps, air temps, elevation, type of dyno, etc.

Although I am not an expert on this, I have a feeling that with JDM B16 pistons you would really need to retune since you are running higher compression. I don't think that the stock USDM ecu is going to be adequate anymore if you are trying to see power gains.

Perhaps someone else can share their opinion.
