Torque figure doesn't really sound right.....

 

*edit: ft/lbs..... could be wrong......

No, torque figures are right. That's at the wheels. Roughly divide by your diff ratio. And then that figure, is after drivetrain losses...

 

My stock 4AGE pulled like 383Nm with a 4.1 diff. And 69hp. At the same dyno that Rob pulled 60hp, I think.

wasn't Nm it's Ft/lb's, in Nm it was over 1800Nm of torque. and about 55kw's.

Umm... Isn't the conversion from ft-lb to Nm something like, 1ft-lb = 1.375Nm?

 

If so, 440ft-lb = 605Nm atw, which assuming you're running a 5.1 diff, would be about... 118Nm at the engine? Does that sound vaguely right?

must be something wrong with his dyno, we had it all converted on the dyno from metric.

 

i'll find out in couple of weeks when it goes back.

you can drift it.

but this is what the dyno was reading out, i didn't believe it, thats why i got him to convert it.

i thinking that his dyno is setup wrong, it is brand new but some of the figures he showed me from other cars didn't quite add up either.

i'll see what happens after rockhampton as we're going to take it back for some tuning.

I've never really checked out a dyno, but I assume they have to enter a diff ratio on a computer somewhere??? If so, perhaps they put the wrong ratio into the computer. Maybe got a decimal point in the wrong spot?
