Anyone have one? I've looked around quite a bit but can't find anything.

Thanks

I made one for you to give you a general idea of what to expect...

Seriously though, they don't make much power. Even with the DASC, my car is still slow, but alot of fun!

That about right. 50# of torque from 2k to 5k, than 60#. LOL . MM

:p

I already know these cars aren't that quick... I'm just building one as a racecar and would like to see what the torque curve actually looks like and know exactly what kind of power a stock motor usually puts to the wheels.

Go here. There is an actual dyno sheet somewhere here.

Keep in mind that the curve on BP's site is from an E30 M42.
