Horsepower calculator works pretty well for a bracket car. Do the numbers add up for a diesel truck? http://www.speedworldmotorplex.com/calc.htm

: Do ya'll know how many horsepower it takes? Max Power 09-12-2006, 09:57 PM No, doesn't add up :) It says I am making 678hp which is probably 100hp high. GlenRoseFireFighter 09-13-2006, 10:16 AM our trucks are 7k lbs, right? It says my truck made 375 at the wheels which is consistant with my stock wheel numbers plus 6 gun on level 6. Duratys 09-13-2006, 10:29 AM our trucks are 7k lbs, right? It says my truck made 375 at the wheels which is consistant with my stock wheel numbers plus 6 gun on level 6. Your truck will be nearing the 8k mark GlenRoseFireFighter 09-13-2006, 11:58 AM Your truck will be nearing the 8k mark no way...not that high, I recently took my truck to the track and they have a vehicle scale there that I pulled up on to. My truck was in low low 7k area...like 7050 or so. Unless their scale is off...no where closeto 8k Duratys 09-13-2006, 06:35 PM I didnt see the 2wd in your sig.....that would make the weight diference compared to mine. GlenRoseFireFighter 09-13-2006, 06:57 PM I didnt see the 2wd in your sig.....that would make the weight diference compared to mine. I see.

I went to tdg.com and it has nothing to offer. B18B1LS1 09-14-2006, 06:36 PM Huh, what did it say? Mine seems pretty close as well as a bunch of others? GlenRoseFireFighter 09-15-2006, 12:54 PM Huh, what did it say? Mine seems pretty close as well as a bunch of others? go to the site...it has nothing to do with vehicle weight or vehicles period. jmg343 09-15-2006, 10:15 PM I dont think it adds up either. Id say its anywhere from 75-100 hp high. B18B1LS1 09-16-2006, 12:51 PM go to the site...it has nothing to do with vehicle weight or vehicles period. That's funny. I just assumed you knew what that meant, its the diesel garage .com, sorry my bad! kziggy 09-29-2006, 09:39 PM my 4wd ext cab comes in at 9200lbs. look in your door jam and read the sticker hdd-max 10-10-2006, 04:22 PM my 4wd ext cab comes in at 9200lbs. look in your door jam and read the sticker ):h Sticker has nothing to do with weight of truck. stroker1 10-10-2006, 06:59 PM lmao.....the diesel garage calc is right on with my dyno numbers bfastcars 10-19-2006, 04:08 PM The GVW on our trucks is 9200 lbs and the 3/4 ton payload equals 1500 lbs. 9200 minus 1500 is 7700 lbs.Our trucks are not light in any way shape or form. It still is amazing how much power the Dmax can generate stock. Hope this helps on everyones hp calculations. Bfastcars:grd: IdahoRob 10-19-2006, 04:54 PM With the above calc. it shows me at 771HP RWHP):h and with the TDG calc. puts me at 643RWHP. Thats at 6600# with driver, which I don't think I'd ever make in my crew cab. Never dyno'd over 580hp, but that is at 25 pounds of boost. I run 50 pounds on the race track, most likely the difference in hp #'s. | ||
