That is a nice graph. Good numbers. A lot of torque available in the low end.

Graph looks odd to me. Not like an actual dyno from an actual car, but rather just manually graphing out the lines based on knowing where peak torque and hp arrive, and filling it all in. I have never seen an actual dyno chart look that smooth.....Anyone?????

As of yet I don't think we have any official info saying the new tranny will be on the base Solstice. Some of the things we see hint it, but those mgiht be missleading because they might be refering to the GXP/RL/GT versions getting the tranny and not the actual base versions.

This is a flywheel dyno and not a wheel dyno. It might also have mathmatical smoothing algorithym applied to it to make it look better for publication.

The PDF is the HP/Torque graph, and is a very pretty sight to behold.

(Mrtoycrazy, I merged your thread, which was posted 3/12/06 AFTER brentil had already started this one... and cleaned up the dupe post. Thought it was obvious, sorry for the confusion).
