torque makes the world go 'round...
'Basically, horsepower numbers aren't worth much. Horsepower is a measurement of torque over time and will not necessarily give you the information you need to determine how much how much of a slug in the gut you'll get when you nail the throttle. Actual torque is the key. '

You have to be careful when you look HP numbers to properly interpret what they mean. I've learned a lot over the years about the way performance mods affect a car and how they work or don't work. Putting in cam (for example) that adds 100 HP doesn't do much in a street car if it lowers the peak torque and just moves the power peak up the RPM range. |

That's why I like to use the torque per liter rather than HP per liter as an engine measurement. The bad news when it comes to our SHOs is we already have about the best torque per liter available which means there is no cheap and easy way to obtain a significant torque increase. All our increases will be in high RPM improvements.
There are only 4 ways to make a significant increase in low- to mid-RPM performance in our SHOs:
NOS
Supercharge
Turbo
Add Cubic Inches

#100 He's proven himslef a ricer to me, that's why I started it by jumpin' on him. Nothing to do with differing opinions or xenophobia, just a simple intolerance for stupidity. |

#106 i am sure if i took the new 4.5 litre v8 from torota and stuffed it into a hatchi roku it would run 8's and cost like 5 grand it is all a matter of personal preference |
