XRBoost Member 50 Member For: 8y 6m 20d Gender: Male Posted 16/01/17 06:48 PM Share Posted 16/01/17 06:48 PM Can anyone help me with converting tractive effort into nm? My dyno sheet has 8600 in tractive effort but I have no idea what that equates to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest asking your tuner for a copy of the dyno run in question (they should have a log of runs on the dyno) that's showing the "derived torque" number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eff xr6t Member 569 Member For: 11y 1m 25d Posted 16/01/17 10:29 PM Share Posted 16/01/17 10:29 PM Why does everyone want to know torque so much?? Trying to compare dyno to dyno with torque figures is stupid. Is it because it's cool to say "my car only makes 500hp but it has 1500nm and its torque that matters"?? I'm dyslexic and cannot turn off simple functions in tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the car goes hard, just wouldn't mind knowing the torque it pushes. Not a willy measuring competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
