why the warning?


It's a pain in the ass when you go to look at a site and it opens the huge, bloated, Acrobat reader. He's letting us know that that's what will happen with that link.

You need to look for specs on the specific engine you're interested in.

Honda's 3.5L V6 (or is it 3.0, I forget...) makes essentially the same HP/torque in all of their vehicles, as will their 4's etc.

Use AR 5 or 7 and you wouldn't have your AR constipation problem.

Reader 7 is slow too, but it throws the "Adobe Reader Speed Launch" or some bs into startup, and it makes it open up quicker. Without it, it's just as slow to load as AR 6. :(

Not sure about 5, haven't used that in years.

Only on your system then. Maybe you still have AR5 on your system. I've disabled the speed launch, and it's still faster than AR6.

I took it off the startup and 7 still loads faster than 6 for me.

Which makes my advice particularly good.

The odds of finding dyno results for a specific vehicle with a specific engine are slim (when you're talking minivans and econoboxes).

Look for specs on a specific engine code, you'll have much better results.

You have a slow computer if it takes more than 5 seconds to open Acrobat Reader.

OMGROFL!!! :D

Slight OT here: if Adobe Reader is so slow for you, google a proggie called PDF Speed Up. I think its on http://www.acroread.com
It disables a bunch of crap and even if you tell it NOT to disable any of the plugins so you have full functionality, it is still an AMAZING difference IMO
