Jim is correct a 01 Mustang with a power to weight ratio (wich is horsepower divided by weight) of .080 and perfect conditions with a good driver would do a mid 5 second 0-60 and a low 14 second 1/4 at around 100mph. Torque in simple terms is how much power a engine has to rotate the wheels. By definition torque is the force that rotates things and in this case it is the front or rear wheels depending on the car. As jim said horsepower s just a mesurment of torque.
Hope this helps
