f*cks's sake! I don't know how to read that, man!
Can't you just tell the 0-100km/h time, 0-400m time or 0-1000m time?  :lol:  :P
 :oops:

i bet 0-60 speed sucks,i think in in top gear by then,with the short rev range,it makes the 7a feel like a close ratio gti box,but i canlight emupat will,in second,and 3rd,a little,under 35-40 mph or so.....oops 100kmh=60mph.....

400m,thats the 1/4 mile right guys?, 400m=1320feet,it did 14.07@ 96 point whatever mph
diesels arent supposed to do this :roll:  :wink:

HP,

The Quarter Mile is 440 yards, or 402.366 meters, so you can think of the American drag race as a 0-400 meters time race. Looking at Hillfolkr's time slip, (he is the car on the RIGHT LANE under the arrow, right?). Down near the bottom you can see the term "E.T.". That means "elapsed time", which shows that he took 14.073 seconds, with an average speed over the last 60 feet (~18 meters) of 96.656 mph (155.552 kph).

To correct for a 0-400 meters time, use this equation:

(400/402.366) * E.T. = (.99412) * 14.073 = 13.99 seconds.

Pretty quick diesel, eh? ;)

Cheers! Stan

ive got no idea,,,ive tried a few of those "simulators" ive found online,based on et, and/or speed(and weight,i said 2000 pounds with driver),most of them said like 140whp,like 180 at the crank?????? this doesnt sound right, i bet the torque is sick though.. maybe ill dyno it at waterfest????.this time i got  was as i  drive it every day,except i lowered the front tires to 25 psi  ,thats all,,heh,the turbo is too small, i already blew one up,,,,gotta upgrade that,no intercooler yet......my clutch slips a little in 4th and 5th,im gonna get a 4puck!!,i think/hope it should be able to do mid hi 13s eventually,and still be my daily driver,like now.....,(tech tip)and its "easy" to remember??1 meter and 1 yard is pretty close for estimating its "only" 3 inches difference or so.... :D yea all this and i got 51 to 54 mpg at 75 mph on a 480 mile trip ,so thats cool too!!!!(here we go again,metric,etc)i prefer metric, :wink:

quite difficult to realize the dimension of some measurements you guys display on this forum.

i basically set it up,so the front struts sit "topped out",like picture your car when you jack it up,and the tires are barely touching the ground,,i cut the front strut perches off,moved them up 2 inches,and rewelded them,,i also used a2 springs in front,,,,,sears trailblazer 195-70-14s tires,,,,in the back i made 3 inch longer shackles,and 3 inch blocks,it took some tweaking to get the ride height right,so it wouldnt break outer left cv joints in turns,,and it handled funny,but looked cool
