in other countries don't they have another name for horsepower when you say 170ps. they are rating the engine preformance i know i have seen that but i can't remember what it stands for at this moment.

How much HP you need to "brake" your car loose

Us americans dont have to worry about that cause we do all our calculations w/ hp @ ft-lbs...

possibly, but Pa is generally used for Pascal, and that is a unit of pressure, not power. I am an engineering Major and i have never seen "ps" used as an abbrv. for a unit.

I thought ps meant "post script" like:

ps- don't forget there is a test tomarrow.

It might be a funky CGS system measurement, they have alot of crazy-assed units. Never know though with these metric boys...
