How could one make such claims with so many mechanical variables? Even a dyno is just a "guideline/estimation" and not an exact method. I'm not trying to bash anybody, just trying to get a better understanding and see if these claims are possible to achieve. Please discuss.
15k and 50% torque in an already fast engine?
no way!
i think he speak about low performance rtr engines.many of those can't handle so much extra power.
