Streetfighter Mustang on Drag Strip

[OzS550]

I read this and it sounds logical to me.

“North America use an SAE rating system for power and torque and we don’t use that figure. We use a DIN rating system, so that’s why there’s a perception of a discrepancy in the power,” McDonald clarified.

Oz550 - that's what's made me scratch my head ever since you've posted it!

I guess we will see once the first Oz spec lands in South Australia!

It'll be interesting to see the dyno run for the Oz model on our tune because all the websites claim the power difference is only 4 kW due to that revised exhaust manifold. It'll also eliminate any of the quoted engine kW figures which currently appear to be brushed under the carpet with the 'SAE vs DIN' excuse - because the dyno run was telling a different story.

I look forward to all the updates before I make a decision on mods!

Definitely on the Drag Strip.

The new FGX XR8 has approx 300 rwkw. We find that although the power level is higher it doesn't translate to track times.
