So the vette made 66rwhp more than he did in that video and was n/a right? did you notice who got the jump from the hit? torque is acceleration and that boosted 4cylinder does not produce more torque than a boosted 600+ mustang...

I dont think your getting the whole weight thing.

500whp/2200lbs = .227 hp/lb

660whp/4000lbs = .165 hp/lb

big difference....

Since when does a mustang weigh 4000lbs? weight is less of a factor from a roll...i would like to see dyno sheets to see what the power curves look like.

Thank you! This thread is painful to read. Even though you've spelled it out very nicely here, LightningTeg, the morons probably still won't give up lol.

All it takes is 300whp in a honda to drag a 750 or 660whp mustang for that matter!

So what is done to the Mustang to make 660hp? And is that wheel hp or estimated crank?

Weight plays a big factor and I think you guys aren't realizing just how much it can.


Two of my friends racing, dead nuts. 210rwhp difference, but also 1000lb difference.



Weight can make up for A LOT of power.
