To begin with: If "in fact" the previous owner put down those numbers then he/she most likely did it with the same HP/TQ that you have now.

You just can't back into RWHP numbers based on track results, since there are too many factors involved in those results.

I'm going to assume simple used the automotive calculator section that is stickied to the top of the forums.

Looking for stuff is fun.
