Nice numbers man. Gotta love the torque. Thats the stuff that throws you back in your seat when you stomp on it.

On another note when people talk horsepower peak horsepower isn't that important if its early on in your power band and dies off fairly quick. I'm guessing this is because of the small turbo? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Explains why STI's usually get the jump on the Evo's but when you get moving the Evo's keep gaining powerall the way to redline and out pull the Evo's.

Also explains why STI's would fair better on a smaller track.
