* Performance is based on sea level, standard day, zero water vapor pressure conditions at the throttle inlet
and exhaust exit with no engine accessory load. Standard day conditions are 29.92 in Hg and 59° F.
Horsepower will vary approximately 1% for each 10° F (5.6° C) change in throttle inlet air temperature.
Correction must also be made for the effect of exhaust backpressure and accessory drive losses. Contact TCM
engineering for correction factors for specific applications.
