Re: Scion VS Celica GTS

I know the whole deal with the torque, but still using the numbers supplied by the dealer, and the experience with dyno's, and racing. What else can you have. Got 2 have bragging rights. Its all we got. Ain't it great?

Torque at the engine means nothing. You know that box sort of dealie connected to the engine with all those gears in it? Those gears multiply the torque created by the engine. Look up gearing numbers for the tC. Multiply engine torque by 1st gear, then multiply that by final drive ratio. You'll find that the torque to the wheels is in the thousands! Astonishing!
