I did'nt even know there was a prius forums. shrugs. I saw this on I-club.com and thought i'd share. If it's a repost, I dont even wanna see it. lol.

I see many prius around LA. It is true that no car can beat prius untill the car reaches around 3500 rpm.
Prius has (295 ft·lbf) torque from 0 to 1,200 rpm. but after that, it is worthless. They probably feel this initial torque thinking that they are fast.

I read some article in a car magazine about a turbo Prius that was gnarly. It was a tiny turbo, tiny boost, but the car made BIG numbers; almost muscle car like.

No offense, but RICE!

dacrazydude Jun 17, 2006 02:00 PM
