One comment on dyno numbers. Everyone likes to post their peak numbers. But peak numbers, while maybe allowing you to flex your internet muscle, is far less important than the 'area under the curve'. An example (a little facetious, but you'll get the point): if your giant turbo starts spooling at 5000rpm and continues to climb to redline (meaning peak hp and tq are at redline), despite the fact that it might be at 500whp at that point, your car will most likely be slower than a car that spools at 3000rpm but doesn't make quite the amount of peak power.
This leads me to...DO NOT ASK "I have xxx whp what is my 1/4 time and trap"!! Answer: Go run and find out!
Hey you sound like you know alot about cars, I have about 360WHP what do you think my 1/4 mile time should be?
SILVER OWNS ALL
