The following is the relationship between torque and HP:
HP = Torque (lb-ft) X RPM / 5252
I have used it many times without any problems except for one car, the MC-Laren F1.
Here is it's torque and power:
627hp@7400 RPM
479lb-ft@4000-7000RPM
So, at 7000RPM this car has 479lb-ft of torque but when you calculate the power at 7000RPM, you will end up with 638hp!
How can this be true while the maximum power is 627hp?
