Bro can you try explain to about this dyno chart torque. Frankly speaking I do not have much concept on torque...and also as you mention nm but the chart stated as kg so it just a measure unit different like kpa and psi?
Yup, British and American again.....like mph/kmh, kpa/psi, liters/gallon

let say, two guys are doing pull up in the gym,
guy1 do 20 pull-up in 10seconds.
guy2 do 20 pull-up in 15seconds.

Guy1 have more torque than Guy2.

continue,
guy1 do another 20 pull-up, takes him 20seconds. after that he pancit d,cannot do anymore pull-up.
guy2 do another 20 pull-up, takes him 15seconds. and he continue to do more pull-up.

here, guy2 have more horsepower(or was it Manpower???):biggrin::biggrin:

more torque mean you can gain speed faster, but doesn't mean more top speed.
Good one man.......:driver:

to keep it more complicated..try this:
Car A: 350Nm@5000rpm, 270whp@7000rpm
Car B: 300Nm@4500Nm, 300whp@6500rpm

which one can win if A vs B sprint 400meter????? Both A and B is quite same in term of car weight n jockey...how? heheheh:biggrin:
Anyone?? untill now not really clear bout torque n horsie..hmmmm

i'd say Car A would be the winner.. for 400 meter..

if 1km or more, Car B would won..

I think most of people won't use heavy mod car for daily use or I should say most of the people won't use high fuel consumption car for daily use.
