Torsional Rigidity??

This is a question for the serious engineer types

How do they measure torsioanl rigidity??

Audi claims that the 02 is 45% stiffer??

I wonder if there is an absolute # so you can compare it with other cars?

I *think* what they do is...

but a bare chassis on a machine that basically bends the sh*t out of it. But I don't think they have a specific units that it is measured in.

Degrees of deflection. Twisting diagonally, usually.
