From reading it I read the 160ftlb to be at the hubs which would give just over 190ftlb at the fly.

Just done some maths myself using only values at the hubs

If 160ftlb is peak torque at hubs at 6000 and peak power is 196 at hubs at 6800.

At 6000rpm Peak Torque=160ftlb Power=182bhp
Then at 6800 torque drops off Torque=151ftlb Peak Power=196bhp

Yes Jay. That's correct !

all torque figures given have been flywheel not hubs, only hubs reading is bhp at 196.

yes you calculate correctly but its not hubs torque its flywheel torque as in georges post.

quote
"Just spoke to Thor.

The peak torque figure @ fly is 192.7ftlb. Torque @ fly @ 6000rpm is 181ftlbs.

I'm waiting for graphs.

Power @ wheels is 196bhp !"


anyway its not my car and ive said enough already, i dont want any arguements so ill leave it alone, steve and george are happy so all is well !

George didn't actually state whether the torque was at the hubs or the fly, considering it was tested at the hubs I assumed it was a the figure obtained by the dynopacks

The torque low down is not as good as a std car being 140ftlbs however it increases to over 160ftlbs and holds it to over 6000rpm.

Anyway look forward to seeing some finished pics and a decent drive by video!!!

yes george did quote torque figures as flywheel figures, and i quoted them in my last post.

amen to that

[MG6Turbo]

Ive just read through my post.

A bit vaque.

Just thought that when i posted i gathered people realised Thor only give results at the hubs !

The related flywheel figures are calculated.

When I spoke to Peter at Thor when the results came in, he said that low down torque was lower, but it was better higher up and held better.

As we all did, we assumed the figure was a flywheel one and not at the hubs.

So apologies to Dave, and thanks for pointing it out.

However, since it has now been explained, we can all get on again.

Im awaiting the graphs from Thor.

that is good news..........moving on then !
