132 ft/lb.

Is this topic the result of someone learning a new mathematical equation or something?

Pssh, I'm a weakling with my tiny 2.0L Pzev....
117lb-ft, but its a commuter car. The SVO has seen 320+lb-ft and the black car does pretty good, its seen over 580lb-ft in some instances (14psi from supercharger). But at 8spi its seeing something like 488ish...

thats just the horsepower converted to foot pounds per minute. in case anyone is curious, that works out to 150 horsepower.

my car made 129 ft-lbs before i put the sct chip on so its somewhere in the 130's now.
