How would I judge a Trans Am's horsepower and torque as on a dyno?

Question

I want to post my T/A's hp and torque as if i had put it on a dyno, but idk how it would exactly be posted. Would it be WHP, RWHP, or what? Same goes for the torque.

Answer 1

A chassis dynamometer measures torque at the wheels at various RPMs. Then it calculates the power at each RPM using this equation:

Power = Torque * RPM / 5252
(for horsepower and foot-pounds)

If you use a dynamometer, you will get a graph showing two curves. One is horsepower vs. RPM. The other is torque vs. RPM.
