Somebody in marketing confused peak power rpm with redline, it's still on their website here:
"The 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine redlines at 7,000 RPM and delivers a 15-percent increase in torque."
Also, 184/156 = 18% increase in peak torque, but as displacement increase suggests it's up by 20% throughout most of the rev range, and less bumpy.

Still, until the car is released and tested, we won't know how much faster it'll be (a few tenths in the quarter mile wouldn't surprise me).

We have a pretty good idea, should be good for 98-99 in the 1/4...
