| A quick question Just looked at the Revo tuning website http://www.revotechnik.com and the only TDI PD 130 car to make 300tflb of torque is the fabia vRS, even the mighty Golf, Bora, Ibiza and Audi engines 130/150bhp make a maximum of 290 bhp of torque, Why is this ? According to there site as well the PD150 engine only makes 10bhp more power but is down 10ftlb of torque  Ivan

| Briskodian | Probably just down to luck. I've heard the Golfs usually make more than the Fabia / Ibiza because they have less restrictive exhausts. |

| Your ignorance is forgiven  It was a general question and not a "Will 10ftlb/10bhp make a big difference" And the answer is :- -----Original Message----- From: Kev Hall [mailto:Kev.Hall@revotechnik.com] Sent: 02 August 2004 15:23 To: Endicott, Ivan Hi Ivan, The Ibiza and Fabia are lighter cars than the Golfs, A4's, etc thus the gearboxes, clutches can handle more torque... We de-tune the heavier cars as such. Regards, Kev Hall Technical Support of Revo Technik Limited
