Torque & Horsepower are the same?
that's what my friend is arguing. ..
i thought torque does the actual work of moving an object while horsepower determines how fast that work gets done. also, can an engine make torque at zero RPMs? |

They're relate to eachother, but your friend is wrong. They're not the same.
Here's a good read if you're interested. http://vettenet.org/torquehp.html Also a good "i told you so" oppurtunity.

That's why the subaru impreza did well in the rally as it's got good tourque on a flat four engine and only 300+ BHP.
Get the gear wrong and the tourque will pull you out, just like a Ducati bike compaired to an R1.
