I understand that Bret, but it is not giving me the God awful amounts of torque you are claiming needed to get into the 13's. It is a 100
HP shot of N20, not a 100
ft/lb shot. Hell, if you are gaining as much torque as 90 ft/lbs per a 75 hp shot, I'd definatley change the way I market N20. I'd be boasting the torque increases not the HP. I do know that it is not giving me a 200 HP boost to get me up to the said 400 hp needed to get into the 13's.
you will just reinforce my point that you can't get into the 13s without more [b]torque.[/QB]
I understand that as well, but, show me (dynos on a SVT with N20) that I am gaining more tq than hp with my N20, and I will be a believer. Even if I am gaining 50 ft/lb with a 100 shot, I am still only getting 190ft/lb at the wheels, right? That is not a TON of torque...
