ive come accros this, you might like to try this
to convert hp to kw use the following as a example
150hp =xkw
you go like this 150 x .746 = 111.9kw,
so, the old vn is 125kw, then to work it backwards in hp you would do the following
125kw x 1.34 = 167.5 hp, not bad
once again, to get a hp figure into kw you multiply hp figure by .746
to get a kw figure into hp rating you multiply by 1.34
or there is this one, to get torque at any given time
hp=torque x rpm/5252 you transpose that formula to be the following
you go like this,
torque = hp / rpm x 5252 / is devide
we have the hp listed above, 167.5hp, rpm, let's say that's at 2.2k (2200rpm)
you go, 167.5 / 2200 (then hit = button) then multiply answer by 5252 and you get torque, expressed in nm in this formula it's 399.868nm
once again, you need to transpose the formula hp=torque x rpm / 5252 to get torque formula of torque = hp/rpm x 5252, remember, the rpm is the only variable in this formula, hp and the 5252 are not variants

have fun playing with this
