yep :)

 

This one seems pretty good for working out your bhp with your 1/4 mile times too:

This is what i got with my stock supra tt auto weighing at 3600 lbs:

 

"Your Supra TT which weighs about 3600 pounds should complete the 1/4-Mile in about 14.1 seconds, if you can produce about 253.82 HP at the wheels, or about 329.97 HP at the flywheel."

Well, basically that calculator suggests that going BPU on an Auto will decrease your 0-60 time from 5.2sec (fair enough) to 4.73 (not so sure).

 

That is a 3400lbs automatic car starting with 326bhp and increasing to 370bhp. Some folks here think they have 440bhp from BPU. 4.1 seconds. I don't think so :)

 

It obviously doesn't take into consideration gear lengths and where in the powerband the horsepower is effective.

My old BPU auto was about 4.7s 0-60 recorded on an Apexi RSM...

Fair enough then. I assumed with the difficult launch that it was hard to improve on the 0-60 apart from in the last 20mph or so, e.g. hard to improve the 0-40 part of it due to the box and low-down boost not changing with BPU.
