I must say I am relieved, that the car a least does what it should given this set of parameters.Michael wrote:Alex, those are very good numbers and they should be more than enough.
I have never seen a petrol engine developing such high torque from 1,000 rpm and staying flat all the way. That means you should be able to idle up anything without effort.
Interesting how 33% of the power and torque is lost between the engine and the 33" tyres.
Would love to see the loss with 31" and 32" as well to see the difference.
But the other dimension to consider when experiencing the effective power at our disposal is weight...

Hmmm, I would first have to make the engne inhale faster with a bigger airfilter.
But I have already spent more on the car than I can sell it for.
Swambo says I will have to supercharge the kitchen first.
