If I asked you a question in the form of:
"Hey nate, my engine makes peak power at X RPM. I wanna hit 200HP out of this tune so I can brag to my buddies I make 200HP. How much torque should I aim for?"
It might make your life quite easy to refer to this graph.
I know algebra and maths is hard and it's for the nerds, but it is kind of a simple basic form of maths that has been used since AT LEAST 1700BC. That's almost four thousand years ago. I mean, it's like there's counting and then there's algebra and anything that's worth thinking about is kind of beyond that...
Power[hp] = (Torque [ft.lb] * RPM[w])/5252
Power*5252 = Torque*RPM
Torque = (Power*5252)/RPM
The graph simply plots Torque = (200hp*5252)/RPM
It represents more than a single car.
It represents ALL cars. ALL engines. In fact, ALL OBJECTS that can rotate and have a coupled force of 200hp.
It's a pretty big axiom.
