    Should be more like 135-140 stock but...... There's no saying a 100 rwkw wont beat a 160 rwkw 5 litre in a race

    Torque wins the race Mine hasn't picked up so much power from mods, just more torque and throttle response. I love it.

    haha it was a joke il just put a 1500 stall and stage 1 shift kit, its just putting a stall in is cheaper than buying a new std torque converter

    165 (kw at flywheel) x 30% (drivetain/transmission) equal 49.5. then 165 kw at flywheel - 49.5 equal 115.5 kw on at the rear wheels... this hows do the maths work


    i hope this will help u i guess so cheers

    Drivetrain loss should be only 15% not 30
