HP and TW unknown... hahaha
When it was on the dyno getting tuned we killed the stock clutch. All I know is that at 2500 rpm the tq was at 434ft/lbs. Which means it still hadn't reach it's peak and is probably in the high 500 range.
Since the new clutch was installed I haven't been back on the dyno. But at least I know the traction problem I was having is fixed. Not I got to worry about the parts holding up...

As long as the rear tires spin, much of the energy at launch is diverted away from the car. Once you start to really hook, all that energy is absorbed by car parts. Just a matter of time until other stuff is going let go. Many racers have 2 budgets....one for modding....one for replacing/fixing stuff.
