All this is doing is making the test procedures more accurate so its easier to compare power. Its similar to the going from gross to net hp. This might be backwards I dont remember. Same engine with a different way of rating it.

Damm, I am sorry if you think I was a hateful turd?
I have a lot of mods and I plan on taking pictures and sharing soon.

* The Society of Automotive Engineers revised Standard J1349, which sets forth the protocol for testing horsepower and torque as of the first of this year. One purpose of the change was to try to achieve more consistent ratings throughout the industry. California requires that advertised horsepower claims be determined using the SAE Standard. The revision specifies that certain equipment be installed on the engine and operating at the time of testing, as well as the use of the manufacturer required grade of fuel during the test. Presumably, all manufacturers will be using the revised Standard for future tests.
Toyota decided to retest most of its engines using the new protocol this year. Consequently, the horsepower and torque ratings for many of our vehicles declined this year. Any changes in horsepower and torque ratings based on the implementation of the new testing protocol, however, have no impact on actual engine performance.
This is on Scion's website. the xB went from 108hp to 103 HP.......go figure

ha ha im a hateful turd hating on autos? well yes i do hate autos. there for ___s who cant drive (especially when they manually shift their auto and try to justify it) but no with i/h/e/ you will not pull 157WHP. ive worked on performance cars for years (out of a performance shop) and im sure you flip my double cheeseburgers for a living. i bet your car is auto with a aluminum spoiler huh?

While domestic automakers were pleased to learn the new SAE rating system for horsepower resulted in power bumps for many engines, including a huge gain for Cadillac’s Northstar V8 that jumps 29 horsepower from 440 to 469, many Japanese manufacturers have discovered they’ll have to reduce the horsepower ratings for some of the industry’s hottest-selling vehicles. The biggest fall happened to Toyota’s 3.0L V6 in the Camry, which drops a full 20 horsepower from 210 to 190. As the article points out, suddenly the 235-hp V6 in the Hyundai Sonata is sounding pretty good. Though the engines haven’t changed in most cases, these lower horsepower ratings could affect the purchasing decisions of consumers who put a lot of stock in that magic HP number.
Ok, that's it. I'm giving up on horsepower and I'm just going to look at torque.
Apparently the SAE tightened up the test where its tougher to fudge certain things like how much oil is in the crankcase and whether the engine has high-octane fuel. It was already pretty strict on density altitude.
yeah, I think its odd that a suposed 250 HP Nissan Altima, a now 190 HP camry run nearly identical 1/4 mile times.......
15.9 VS 16.2
and the camry has 60 HP less? I now take HP with a grain of salt, and look at track times...
