Turbo-Bitchin' Thread. Was: What's the target power to weight for STU?

[Chip42]

no dog in the hunt, but no, he didn't use whp. he used 120 hp/l which you just stated was the estimated chp/l for STU. you assume a 15% driveline loss and you could just as easily have said 102 whp/l (120*0.85).

weight to wheel hp numbers following Greg's math (which is correct):
120hp/liter x 0.85 x 1 liter/1000cc x cc/1.1# = .093 hp/#, or 10.75 #/hp

And FWIW, 102whp/l is much more in line with STL, I don'thave a clue what one might actually see in STU
