Does anyone know what happens to torque curve when you install the K&N aircharger.. I cant seem to feel an increase but i def feel a diff above 4k.. just wondering what the curve does for torque below 4k.

According to the dynochart, hp doesn't start to increase that much until you start to get up in higher RPMs. There is no evidence, but I would not be surprised if the torque tracked about the same as the hp.

Based on how HP relates to Torque...

whoa thanks for the excel sheet enfynet. So there is just a mathematical relation between tq and hp? So how accurate are those numbers to actual dyno numbers i wonder.. Pretty close?

Thanks!

Quoted post

horsepower = torque * rpm / 5252

torque = horsepower / rpm * 5252

dyno's measure torque and then convert to hp

ah okay thanks again.. so that means i have somewhere around 277hp at 6000 and 292 lb-ft tq at 4500 Not bad if k&n is close to correct with their dyno
