You do understand that those torque and hp rating are estimates based on information you put it. They can help you determine if a change you make is for the better but they should not be considered accurate. The only accurate way to measure HP and torque is a real Dyno.
If you want gages and estimates based solely on computer data try this.

You might need the pro version for HP estimates.

If you want to try a accelerometer type pocket dyno the cheapest way to go is to download one of many Ipod/Iphone apps for $5.

It can know how long it takes for your speedometer to go from zero to 60. It just does not how much HP you have. That is why I said it is good to compare before and after mods.
