Performance Data
Output Characteristics Data
This chart displays Engine Power (PS), Torque (kg/m), and Engine RPM. It compares the 'R type I/C' with 'Factory I/C' and 'Factory IC'. The 'R type I/C' shows higher power and torque output across the RPM range compared to the factory options.
Chart Description: Line graph showing E/G Power (PS) and Torque (kg/m) against Engine RPM. The Y-axis on the left shows values for E/G Power (PS) and Torque (kg/m), with corresponding values in parentheses. The Y-axis on the right shows values for Torque (kg/m). The X-axis represents Engine RPM from 0 to 7000.
Cooling Performance Efficiency
This chart illustrates Cooling Performance Efficiency (%) against Engine RPM, comparing 'R type I/C' and 'Factory I/C'. The 'R type I/C' demonstrates higher cooling efficiency across most of the RPM range.
Chart Description: Line graph showing Efficiency (%) against Engine RPM. The Y-axis represents Efficiency (%) from 60 to 100. The X-axis represents Engine RPM from 1000 to 7000.
Pressure Loss Data
Pressure Loss
This graph shows Pressure loss (kg/cm²) against Engine RPM for both 'R type I/C' and 'Factory I/C'. The 'R type I/C' exhibits significantly lower pressure loss compared to the 'Factory I/C', especially at higher RPMs.
Chart Description: Line graph showing Pressure (kg/cm²) against Engine RPM. The Y-axis on the left shows Pressure (kg/cm²) from -0.98 (-0.1) to 1.47 (0.15). The X-axis represents Engine RPM from 0 to 8000.
