check out their website,and look at the graphs.if anyone knows the formula for converting power to torque then please try and see if it all makes sense from the info available.

Someone posted a dyno chart a few weeks ago that showed those levels too...

I'm not sure I believe it, but thats what the dyno chart said.

Looking at the graph, I saw about 308hp@3400RPMs, which equals 475 lb-ft...

...so it sounds like 492 may have in fact been what is found, BUT the whole thing seems fishy given the HP at the wheels is upconverted to HP at the flywheels and seeing peak HP at the wheels under 200...
