Here's my estimated calculations from the graph. The dyno run starts at about 2500 rpm but I'm only using 4000 rpm and up.

4000 rpm = 160 whp and 225 wtq

4400 rpm = 270 whp and 330 wtq

5000 rpm = 460 whp and 500 wtq

5400 rpm = 650 whp and 630 wtq

5900 rpm = 710 whp and 630 wtq

6400 rpm = 760 whp and 620 wtq (torque appeared to be moving downwards)

The rest is skewed from there.

if your calculations are correct its pure topend. the only RPM's it makes good power is from 5000 to 6400.

not much of a power band

Well we took a 2007 z06(427ci), 2004 z06(409ci), and the Neon out last night.
I will post video's and pictures soon.
Let's just say...
It wasn't even close and the backfire(fire and sound) from the neon was menacing!

Your calculations are a weeee bit off. Couple 1000 off.

I would say I have a pretty nice powerband.

It's Justin.
I am "somewhat" educated and remember who you are.
Link Aric to this post...
I have been trying to show him pictures and progression of the car.
I called him the other day, but he didn't return my call/voicemail.
I want to talk with him about some stuff I have done and plan for the car.
Just a few mods left then she will be hitting the streets soon enough.
