HP = Horsepower

T = Torque

PSI = LBS per square inch

GPM = Gallons per minute

ERPM = Engine RPM

Formula’s:



HP = (PSI x GPM) / 1714

T = (HP x 5252) / RPM

HP = (T x RPM) / 5252

GPM = ERPM / Final Drive x {tire circumference / roller circumference}

231

Example:

800 PSI x (10,000 RPM / 8.44 x 2.78) / 231

1714


= 6.65 HP at the rear wheels
