Just wanted to know what the WHP of a factory twin port 1600 on a type 3 is?

They are 60bhp, drivetrain loss is about 20% so your somewhere around 48whp. :cry:

DIN horsepower is always measured at the drivewheel. Look up your DIN horsepower.

I think DIN is 50hp so I was pretty close with my ricer math ;)
