[QUOTE="FISHTAIL, post: 9881316, member: 19212"] You do realize that one is calculated from the other right? hp = (torque * rpm)/5252. Hp is nothing more than a calculated number to denote work done over time. All wheelhopper was getting at was high power applications will destroy T-5's quickly. For instance, I'm hoping to see 400+rwhp from my setup, and I'm fairly certain that the T-5 in my car won't live very long if I drive the car hard. As for a 3k rpm launch...that's pretty standard for drag racing. My cobra has the 2 step set at 4500, although I haven't left on it yet. I believe Doug there used to launch his 03 at around 4k though. Anyway, I agree with the above post that you should ditch the T-5 if you plan on making any kind of power. If you are going to stay close to stock, then you'll be fine, but otherwise your just asking to be rebuilding it all the time. [/QUOTE]
