Is there something wrong with my friends EA82?


Recommended Posts

I have an EA81 and my car has more power. Is there a problem with his EA82 perhaps? I notice the EA82 is geared a bit lower, for example if I am cuising at 55 in my EA81 I am turning just over 2K RPM (2300 perhaps). When I do the same in his EA82 its turning 2500-2800 RPM. His also seems to have zero guts til you hit 3K.

The EA81 is generally better in the low end, and the EA82 is better at higher revs, but there still could be something up with that one. Most of them start to make power around 3k, and the peak torque is at 2800 rpm, so that doesn't sound too unreasonable.

 

Has it had a tuneup recently?
