These cars get 12 sec 1/4's stock and even at 320 rwkw it's telling me I'll only run a 13.45 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79167-14-mile-calculator/#findComment-1204831 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to convert from kw to hp also. Divide by 0.746.

Vevapower Waiting for the 1st N/A 12! Donating Members 2,533 Member For: 17y 4m 6d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 03/03/12 05:23 AM Share Posted 03/03/12 05:23 AM (edited) A turbo car will always have higher MPH than then the same power V8.So it's a little flawed.A mate I came up with this one many years ago but like any Calculator it doesnt work for everyone and we had a lot of haters!Anyways I think this one is closer to the mark than the robrobinette one!This is calculator only accounts for street tyres too so if you used MT's or Slicks then obviously your ET would be quicker!XR6 Turbo.com drag calculator V1.1.xls Edited 03/03/12 05:26 AM by Vevapower Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79167-14-mile-calculator/#findComment-1205101 Share on other sites More sharing options...
