    ACR owner needs a wake up call

    There was no tax on private party transactions in AZ. Then in the early 1980's the state changed it to tax private sales of vehicles, planes, & boats. If they thought the person was reporting too low of a sales price they just assessed a kbb value. People here didn't like that. Taxes...

    Upgraded speakers, now have a crackling sound from rear speaker.

    John, What did you check the amp for? There might be a switch on your amp. If so, one position is R (Roadster)-a mono output from the amp to the console speaker and the other is C (Coupe) - a 2 channel output to the 2 speakers in the rear of the GTS. not sure, but I think the output in...

    Upgraded speakers, now have a crackling sound from rear speaker.

    The efficiency is the number to consider when wondering how loud the speaker will sound with a given input. give them a 1 watt input and the speaker with 93 db will sound much louder than one with an 88 db spl. The ohm resistance is not the deciding factor on how loud it will be with 1 watt...

    Why do we even track torque? (here I go again)

    That is the motor speed of your peak power- higher than that rpm power is going down. Your dyno sheet should show your tq at that rpm at 467. Down from the peak tq the motor made at a lower rpm.

    Why do we even track torque? (here I go again)

    so what rpm was your '04 at when it got 528 rwhp ?

    Why do we even track torque? (here I go again)

    Short answer: We track torque because that is what we can measure. We can also track rpm. from those 2 values we calculate the HP. Longer answer: Like with another type of power - we measure the volts and we measure the current (amps) and then calculate the watts (power) all those light...
