Engines with lack bottom end power?

There is no actual thing as horsepower. Horsepower can NOT be measured!!! Torque is the only thing that can be measured. ALL HP figures are a MATHEMATICAL PRODUCT of torque compared to RPM (in the case of engines)

For a better understanding, consider the mathematical constant in the HP formula, and the fact that ALL torque/ HP curves have a common marker at that constant which is 5252

HP = torque X RPM / 5252

There is, therefore, only two ways by which an engine can make more horsepower. That is A: make more torque, and/or B: make torque at a higher RPM
