Underworld Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hey guys was having a discussion with my mate. And was discussing the power to weight ratio of the stock mk4 tt. Any ideas? Ive tried googling and looking on the forum Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 If a UK spec is 1600Kgs ISH and the power is 326bhp then it's 203bhp/ton. Jspecs are lighter but have less power...supposedly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyefi Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 about 1500kg 320hp so about 213hp/ton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Terry's single roughly weigh 1500kgs, being a j-spec minus the heavy twins + a light but big single.... So his power to weight is about 365bhp/ton. (Based on 547Bhp) Ian's recorded 580 at the rear wheel, 630crank and would come in at 386RWHP/ton or 420FWHP/ton.

Underworld Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 Cheers guys Incidently i was watching a prog about those honda engines on the motogp bikes 1000cc. They said they were running at 240bhp and like 10000000000000000000000000000000000000 hp per ton lol. (Give or take a few zeros). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
