Cost per HP gained? 0-60 reduction per HP?
 

Has anyone compiled the cost per HP (Total Cost $$$ divided by HP gained)?

How about reduction in 0-60 mph? Say you gained 20HP, how many fraction of a second did we gain/lose?

Good idea

Just something you might want to consider... Say that you have an intake and it adds 18whp, and then you have an exhaust that adds another 8whp on top of the 18whp. But say if you did the exhaust first, the dyno would register 20whp and downplays the intake to 6whp. So you might want to consider that when you calculate the whole cost per HP gained. So doing a total price divided by total whp might make more sense than doing individual piece calculation. Hopefully this makes sense... Unless im talking complete B.S., just ignore my post.

Yep

That's what I am pursuing. Total as opposed to individual

at the end of the day, what is important to me would be the 0-60 reduction.

wgaf about 0-60 times....:wtf2:

100lbs loss for every 0.5sec improvement... typically.

There are plenty of calculators on the web to determine performance Vs HP or weight. Do a search. You'll find that lots of $$ rarely makes a big difference (unless the dollars are in a bushel basket)...:tup:

And a better diet would probably get people the most gains in this respect...

:ughdance:

yes, and it would be free too. :rofl2:

Are you kidding? Have you seen the cost of eating healthy these days?! :roflpuke2:

Who said "healthy" just dont eat and only drink. And Im not talking watter either. Or you could always go on a drug diet and stay skinny that way but the the cost per hp would go sky high.

touche :tup:

i think 0-60 times are meant more for magazine entertainment than anything else. i can think of a hundred different, better ways to calculate value per dollar, and sinking $$ into a car is not one of them, hehe!

to each his own. I have friends that spend money in ways I never would and they wouldnt spend money on things I do.
