Horsepower Question

[gmgagne]

Well i was looking at my statistics on both of my FX's and i noticed that my 06 45 has 320 HP and 335 ft pounds of torque and my 05 35 has 280 horsepower and 270 foot pounds of torque. But the 05 45 has less and the engine looks different in the 06. The 06-08 35 has less 280, anyone know what thats about??? just curious

likely the new testing stardards put in place used for '06 & up

ok yeah for the 45 but the 06 and up 35 has less power

SAE corrected numbers.
They changed the engine cover on 45's.

but the 06 and up 35 has less power

Same output. Just SAE adjusted.

I don't even believe in bhp numbers anymore :dontknow: I mean... it's not that I don't believe in them... it's just kinda meaningless until you get to whp.
