Hp lower than torque
I just had AHR 1 7/8 headers with hi flo cats and a Vararam super street installed along with a custom tune. The Hp is 25hp lower than the max torque. SAE. 354 hp 377 torque.
Any ideas why? It is l99 with auto. |

It's not shocking to see numeric torque be higher than numeric horsepower sometimes. It just happens.

It's probably because you have AHR headers instead of ARH...
