Torque isn't power anymore..? id rather have a car with even torque/hp then a car with high hp and no torque.*cough* Hondas. exception f22 and b20

cavys make tq which gives you the false feeling that it may actually be making power.

its not talk.

last i heard, torque=power..


since technicaly you can't measure horsepower, rather just come up with it as a function of torque and rpm.

HP=(tq*rpm)/5252

hence the reason honda's make such high horsepower number on shitty torque, they have higher RPMs.

hotrex, i'm sure you've got alot of experience.. did you stop to consider the power to weight ratio between the civic and the cavy??
not trying to be a smart ***.. or hate on you.. you just cant compare a 280 whp civic with a 280 whp cavy.. my opinion the civic would kill the cavy with equal hp cuz of the weight differences
