Torque is a force the produces rotation to keep it simple. It can be measured by the product of the force and the perpendicular distance from the LOA. HP at the wheels depends on the amount of loss experienced in a particular drivetrain. It will vary car to car.

torque over here in North America is messured in pound feet and thats at a one foot radius how many pounds of force is produced. the one foot gives it leverage i think. In europe its messured in newton meters if i'm not mistaken. Torque gives you that kick back when you floor it from a stand still and hp is what gets you moving on the highway. More tq you have the more likely your gonna spin your tires.
am i wrong here? can someone back me up here? wet weather trick... to see where your power bands really are take of in first gear from a stop slowly adding more and more gas until the wheel brake lose the first time (for me its around 2500rpm) then reduce gas to stop spinning and start bringing the rpms up again... once you get above the rpms the wheels spun at try adding more gas, next time the wheels brake lose should be your hp power band. For me its around 4600rpm. let me know what you guys get.. now ofcourse i can spin all the way to red buttheres really no point in that. |

actualy hp is a dirived number.. tq is the real power: HP= (tq*rpm)/5252 if you notice on EVERY dyno, a engine produces the same hp and tq at 5252rpms.

whatever rpm your at. lets say your making 200ft/lbs@ 2000 rpms
(200*2000)/5252 = 76hp

when i had my 93 civic hb... i sware i had less then 90 hp... i would get ready to do a burn out.... i would lift up the e-break... put in the clutch... shift to first gear... rev the shit out of the motor.... and just dump the clutch... skerrrrrrrt.... (on 13's
) and i would have to let in the clutch again or i would stall it... i didnt have that much power to keep the wheels spining... it was pretty imbarssing...

that formula doesnt work dude.. if my engine puts out 225ft/lbs@2800 rpm and 210hp 5200 rpm
then it should be (225*2800)5252=119 and thats bs! |

you can't hit your max with an auto b/c it's located at such a high rpm. my car, for instance, has a stock max of 135hp @ 5050 RPM and 153 ft/lb of torque @ 3750 RPM. most autos shift somewhere around 3000rpm. |

Ditto on 4thGenLude. HP sells cars, torque wins races.
http://www.revsearch.com/dynamometer/comments.html As for me, >400hp. And the dude who said autos make power higher up, you need to pass to the left. Max |

yup. ive read something very simalar to that, but it was more in a explanation, than a question and answer. that one was easyer to understand. a flat, hardly changing curve is MUCH better than a high spike on either end, then tappering off.
