Those are units, good old US imperial units.

Eh, whatever, my car gets 40 rods to the hogshead and that's the ways I likes it!

Also, I asked for an average, not different regimes.

UNITS, PEOPLE

What the hell did you think we're using? 25 fuzzy bunnies to the squirrels head?

 

[GRtak]

That is a strange fuel mixture for a car. My old snowmobile could run that.

I'm guessing it's a 3 litre I6?

no, it's an f20 so 4cyl turbo

Oh yeah, the torque figure would support that.

it's a nice little motor, though a bit on the quiet side when you're driving

Picked up a new beater. '87 Cougar with a mildly crammed '92 5.0 engine and t5. With a nice loud exhaust. Figure 3400lbs and maybe 240hp. Good torque for what feels like a real high axle gear. Approximately 250% more umph than my old Volvo wagon.

Does it still have the 7.5 or did they put an 8.8 in it?

 

[tigger]

It's still got the 7.5". I might swap it someday. Mostly for rear disc brakes.

Damn, I didn't realize how heavy those things are. Still want one though.

 

[Labcoatguy]

Hmm, I need to get my MR2 dynoed and weighed, because it and its drivetrain are so far from being stock that the factory numbers are useless.

 

[tigger]

Where do you think you're at? 2700lbs and 200+ hp? I don't remember if you said what year your engine is.

It's a 2004 with a 2003 ECU, but with intake/header/exhaust; I'd expect it to be closer to 2400-2500 lb given the lighter engine and lack of AC.
