So I have heard a couple of times now, that the TSX's torque is understated ??
If this is the case, what are the true torque figures for the TSX???

 

It appears, from dyno charts, that the TSX torque is understated by about 5-7 lb-ft. So the true number should be closer to 171-173 lb-ft. as opposed to the advertised 166 lb-ft. Not a huge difference, but certainly a noticeably one.

 

for a point of reference the k24 in japan is rated at 200 hp @ 6800 rpms and 171lbft @ 4500 rpms. We most likely have the exact same tune. The reason they might understate it is to claim " 90% peak torque from 2500-7000" rpms where they couldn't do that if the used the real toque figure.
