    Yes. When investigating the power reserves of a car, we naturally consider the whole drive train. Almost any car has power reserves. However, the Stinger GT has a lot of power potential.

    Excellent question. In Europe, it is standard to measure the engine output, which is roughly speaking wheel horsepower plus powertrain loss. So how is the power loss measured? Many dynos just calculate the power loss, which is inaccurate. Only few dynos, such as our MAHA dyno, really measure...

    Yes, it makes a difference, but it is very small. Car manufacturers face the same issue. They generously round down to their desire or just use the same number, because the 2 mph difference is so small. It really does not make any sense to compare a rolling start with a normal 0-60 start. I...

    Yes, usually this is done by changing the software on the ecu and not via a piggyback. However, removing the vmax is no rocket science. Too bad! Thank you for sharing this information. Currently, we are not planning to remove the vmax. As I already mentioned, RaceChip does not remove any...
