Performance Calculator

Post by duncan »

Digging this up from an old post elsewhere but for those that havent seen it:

http://www.letstorquebhp.com/calculator.asp

Stock stats/weights are available on that site aswell so that you dont have to guess weight.

Current Stats for me:

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 314
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1495
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 213.41
0 - 60 (Secs) : 4.72
0 - 100 (Secs) : 12.29
60 - 100 (Secs) : 7.57
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.41
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 104.42
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.01
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 107.76

This is mine based on current bhp:

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 442
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1470
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 305.51
0 - 60 (Secs) : 3.54
0 - 100 (Secs) : 8.64
60 - 100 (Secs) : 5.11
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.10
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 118.28
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.70
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 122.29

And estimated final power:

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 485
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1470
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 335.23
0 - 60 (Secs) : 3.32
0 - 100 (Secs) : 7.98
60 - 100 (Secs) : 4.65
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.84
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 121.81
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.44
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 125.98

Oh yes, and withthe NOS plumbed in and BIG jets... ;)

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 650
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1470
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 449.28
0 - 60 (Secs) : 2.85
0 - 100 (Secs) : 6.27
60 - 100 (Secs) : 3.42
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.11
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 133.65
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 10.71
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 138.32

Although if I get that much NOS running through it I think my '0-knackeredgearbox' time will be even faster! :lol:

LOL, and it doesn't take in to account the torque and traction that you have.
