This is siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!!!!!!
Due to crazy weather over the weekend, I didn't take the duck out for a good test. But today, 66 degrees, clear skies, open roads..............
So..............
Ahem............
Well, it's certainly no "duck"! I'm going to have to come up with a new moniker for the yellow beast, 'cause that's what it is - a beast!
I'll start off by telling you guys that it was dynoed at 12 noon, ambient temp = 62 degrees.
It dynoed at 352.0 hp (at the wheels) and 450.6 (at the crank) - peaking at 6750rpm.
The data was corner weight corrected and heat soak corrected to 371.4 hp (at the wheels) and 475.4 hp (at the crank).
The torque was 345.2 ft-lbs (at the wheels) and 441.9 ft-lbs (at the crank) - peaking at 4500rpm.
The torque numbers were corrected to 364.2 ft-lbs (at the wheels) and 466.2 ft-lbs (at the crank).
DAYUUUUUUM!!!!!!!!
Real world driving impression: (see comment in red above)
EDIT: I'll have some real world driving numbers by tonight.
