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:

top fig there Michael

here's mine

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 240
Weight without Driver (KG) : 740
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 329.53
0 - 60 (Secs) : 4.43
0 - 100 (Secs) : 10.56
60 - 100 (Secs) : 6.14
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.79
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 110.02
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.59
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 112.10

this seems to be quite close, as the term speed i'm getting now is very close to that of the figs above.

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

it doesnt - i was wondering about how the torque figures affect this
