He isn't comparing torque to horsepower. He isn't comparing USA hp to Brit or Aussie hp. He isn't saying hp and torque are the same thing. We all know there is a relationship between torque and horsepower as torque is used to calculate horsepower regardless of which nationalities hp you are calculating. He wants to know why the ratios are different between different car engines.
