That's your opinion, I disagree.

My junk is slow and always will be. I'm okay with it. lol

Your junk is slow cause its basically stock. I said 700 rwhp plus is fast. And god damnit why do you have to derail every thread.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

You have an accountability issue there, Jeff. I believe you started the derailment with the top two posts and David came along fueling it.



Back on topic -


Yes, 400tq is very common. I think it really depends on what kind of dyno you were on. Some are more generous than others.

Yeah I said after you and Nic. Do you have selective reading?

I posted my numbers and agreed with Nic. You just don't like my opinion. That is fine, get over it and let the thread go on.

And when I post something you guys always post something afterwards. So do what you preach.

It's hard to compare dyno numbers between cars unless they were both dynoed on the same day, and dyno, with as close to the same exact weather as possible, and the dyno tech hit the trigger at the exact right moment on both cars.

Just too many factors to come into play. (You like this post don't you Steve? Lol)

It also depends on how the TQ values are determined. A calculated TQ value done from the load on the dyno (like Brooks') may be way off from one calculated by RPM sensor and such like TS does.

Car 1 and Car 2 weigh the same, have the same gearing, same tires, and twin brothers driving.

Car 1 makes 400tq at 2500rpm and 400hp at 6500

Car 2 makes 375tq at 2500rpm and 425hp at 6500

Car 2 wins the race every time, assuming the driver knows that you don't let the engine drop to 2500rpm during a race.

I get what your saying. But my car was was within 5-6 hp and 5 ft lb on Brooks' dyno on a hotter day, so I would consider that an accurate measure. I understand the variation between weather and dynos and what not and that of course, makes sense.

my thing is I believe a street car that makes 30 ft lb across the board will be faster than a car that makes 20 or so at the very top of the tach.
