12HT Horsepower

[60 mad]

She looks a bit rough and do you know why the genuine x over pipes have been taken off ?

Is there anyone in melbourne that sells a 3 1/2 dump pipe for a 12HT.

this may be a little off topic but useful nonetheless for people buying- when i was buying my 4by, people told m that the 12ht and 1hz put out about the same amount of power. i ended up buying a 12ht, and this weekend went into the dunes with my girlfriend's dad, who owns a 1hz 80. suffice to say that in stock standard form, the 12ht absolutely caned the 1hz- much more bottom end, so at the tops of dunes when you are losing momentum, the 12ht keeps pulling and the 1hz stalls out-oh, and i get much bettr fuel economy to boot ( now i'm just bragging- seeya)

The power figure for the 1HZ is 96 kw ,power for the 12HT is 100kw
but the 12ht has much more torque over the whole rev range

so when you hit sand or somthing that will sap engine revs the 1hz drops out of its comparably narow power/ torque band and dies in the arse
in the real world it is how much power and torque you have spread across the entire rev range rather than peak power figures

same as why 100s turbo does better than petrol even though power figures are better for the petrol


if you compare the 1HDT to the 12HDT then it is a different story
