Thus, if you multiply the value in the bottom line by 70%, you get the number in the Brake Torque line (at least for your W6A caliper):

3141 * 0.7 = 2198.7 (2199 rounded)

Now, exactly what the Total Braking Torque number actually means, I'm not sure. I think it refers back to Ron's Guideline, meaning that the 3141 total would fall between the 3000# (Performance Production Car) and the 3500# (Good street & track braking system) areas. Ron, could you please confirm that I'm understanding what that row of the table is referring to?

(I've said it before, and I'm saying it again... I love all this tech you are providing!!! THANX! )

Bryan,

You have it correct. You can look at my post answering Rob for more detail.
