: torque ratings are from the factory?

 The advertised figures are:

   auto trans: 215hp and 420lb-ft
 manual trans: 235hp and 460lb-ft

  Peak horsepower for both motors happens at 2700rpm, peak
torque for both motors is not actually at one rpm point but
is the same from 1600-2700rpm. (Got to love a diesel's torque
"curve".) ;-)
