my buddy dyno'd his car and ended up with 146.7 hp. we have the SAME SETUP. when we race i walk his ass all day long. my car is at 2262 lbs. whats the power to weight ratio?

 

The same setup will always differ.

 

have not dyno'd my car yet but he drives a 95 integra ls. just for say i put down same numbers?

 

you obviously

A: make more power

B: weigh less..

 

i know this im asking how do you figuer our power to weight ratio

 

divide wieght by power?!?! I'm not sure but that seems like it would make sense.

 

i came up with 15.4 so every 15lbs is 4 hp?

 

I think your'e forgetting a very very important point...Gear Ratio...If your tranny is geared shorter than his and/or your wheel/tire size is shorter than his, you will have a larger amount of torque being transfered to the ground...This will make all the difference in acceleration...
