Torque is a force. Horsepower is a measurement of how much of that force can be applied over a given time.

FYI the fastest car isn't which one crosses the line first.

Mph is the best and most accurate way to work out a vehicles power, aside from an engine dyno. Mph never lies.

Easiest way to differentiate HP and KW
1kw = 1.34 HP

In thai case 142rwkw = 190rwhp

MPH? How is that the best?

Pressure, air temp, car areo, car weight, track conditions, driver and reaction time all influence MPH so how it that more accurate than a dyno?

With a dyno, you just need someone who knows what they are doing and a correctly calibrated dyno.

Lol u can pick up 10rwkw on a dyno by simply tightening or loosening the straps. A dyno is simply a tuning tool.

A given car will run a certain mph for its weight and power. Moroso slide calculator.

From a vehicles mph you can work out what it should et in a "perfect world".

Et's are influenced by variables. That's why u can run a 12.3 @ 112mph and 13.3 @ 112mph

Bosch Blue Top 775 Injectors 24lb & Freshened Up Motor a Little.

Injectors are way to small.

Stock is 30 lb, supercharged 32lb, raptor supply 36lb with their supercharger kits (all from memory).

Can someone double check my numbers ?

The injectors are plenty plenty big for this application. U can go 230rwkw ish on them. Hear I am quoting dyno figures.

Stock 304 injectors are 24lb blue tops. Super6 injectors are 36lb

i dont fully agree with that either as cars with big turbo's can do a crap mph due to turbo lag but put out big hp..
