Wonder what is going on with these new engine designs.

This car has great low end torgue and drives real easy around town.

Its hard to keep above the torque dip in this car without getting starred at by everyone on the street. In stock form it litterly starts at 3500rpm and goes to 5000. So you either stay below in the torque, or above and redline every shift.

My biggest pet peeve is when i want to drive a little spirited(not redline), the dip just KILLS it. Cant wait to get tuned so that at least the dip is narrower and less deep because at 3500ft+ sea level i am already down on torque
