It dynos at about 134-136 at the wheels of the ones I've seen.

That's it? I thought it was up around 160hp.

160 hp at the engine for 2.3L, 150 for 2.0L
135 or so sounds right to me for the 2.3L given typical parasitic drivetrain losses. The 2.0 would be around 125.
Vehicle manufacturers very rarely (if ever) advertise rear wheel horsepower.

That is my bad. I read it wrong. Nice to know it still has the engine horsepower I thought it did though! :D

Geeze about 10 more then my Ducati. Still the car is responsive for so little HP. I can't wait to get my suspension work done. I can't imagine it handling much better then stock but I know it will.

I want to get some suspension work done to my car as well. I've had it in the past on other cars, and they are so much more fun to drive with the suspension altered.
