See that low end torque is what kills GTRs too as I'm sure AMS will tell you. Just start snapping rods and gears when you let 600+ come on too quick.

Thats why I built it and even now I had them smooth out the low end to have power come on after 3.5rpms

So I'm really curious how the m5/m6 will do with people just beating on it
