Quote from: neil_jdmr;611990great torque figures Nik,
 
But on the subject and just talking about on stock ports,
How come the torque figures vary so much between engines with similar mods, Pip got me 270odd lb\'s/ft,( Ill have to check) but i also see a lot with 220-240lb/ft always around the same 300-350fwhp.
 
Is it just in the tune or does it give any indication to the health of the motor??


I thought about this too. Mines at 320 bhp fly, 278 Ibft

mine did 324.1 at the fly and 268.0 at the wheels at reworx, similar rwhp but less fwhp for some reason - similar mods but no airpump

Pretty much identical figures to mine, But most dyno sheets ive seen show something more like, 320fwhp  236 lb/ft.
 
What is the standard 255hp rx7\'s torque figure ?
Standard sequential, standard engine, Oem body, 1.2bar, WI

Hi Nik,

Great results :Thumbsup! Be interested to see how it compares to mine in terms of driveability. Are you coming up to rotorpop - will see you there for a beer if so :guinness

nice results on a stock engine,  interesting how they calculated 20% losses (drag) most people say 18%,   good for pub torque i spose :)

Lee,  did they find out what the issue with your car was?
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!

Haha pub torque, very good. I wondered about the 18% thing, too. Can\'t answer that one, I\'m afraid. :3Confused

Cheers, Mr Beast! Sorry your \'8s out of action atm, dude, but at least it\'s better to be banned by your doctor than by the Courts :)

Karl, it\'s bloody excellent mate. Especially since I had it with the boost held back to .6 bar before because of the injectors maxing out, so it was well slow. She\'s a goer now :D. I still think it\'d be faster if you let me have  my shopping list back though lol, that\'d be worth another good 10 bhp

Chris, yeah, I\'ll be at RS mate, I\'ve got to prove to Adam that red ones are faster than black (although I can\'t shout too much about that or Lee will prove yellow ones are fasterer still). See you at the bar, dude :cheers
