Take your car to a drag strip and video tape it. I can edit the clips into one so that they are side by side and post it on youtube. Internet drag racing
Most drag race folks seem to think that HP wins races, and I tend to agree (and I didn't have to see Juan beat a Corvette in a drag race to believe it).

Our torque curve is even flatter, but it tops out at 214ish.

BTW I actually believe it would be very close (so not really a pwning) once you take the first 60' varialbles out of the equation.
Interesting idea on the internet drag. Didn't mysql have some fancy software that predicted acceleration through the gears based on dyno results ?

HP does win drag races - but not necessarily peak . More the average area under the hp curve in the rev range you are operating .

Dyno sheet racing is for pussies, let's do something for total nerds: Intercontinental Youtube Drag Racing!
We should definitely do it.

As long as the videos follow the car, and the videos include the light trees @ start and the finish lines (with times), it would work. It would be two videos encoded into one to play side by side, and synchronized to the green light. I'm pretty sure I can do that with Nero 7 Ultra, although I haven't tried.

I can't see how type matters - unless it is vegitable oil or something.... LOL
You may have an oil leak and just not know cause it burns off the turbo...
Either that or you have a pressure leak somewhere in the oil system.... or the pump is dying...

Other than tyre size there other variables would be the same as a drag strip ...
