Great post! Thanks!

Is it generally fair to claim then, that if two engines spinning at the same rpm with identical torque will have the same power output (bhp) and raising the rpm will continue to produce the same output.

You see, my original confusion is related to the fact that I read a whole lot of torque and power specifications about different cars and I always wonder why two cars with the same power output can have very different max torque numbers and vice versa. Is that all depending on at what rpm you measure the output?

I am really sorry to bother you guys with these stupid questions. I am a slow learner (and driver).

Thanks!
