As for the lower redline on the new type r... Sucks that it's not higher but I've seen worse. Maybe we can get it up in the aftermarket. I have a buddy with a k20 SC setup revving to 10k ... *Drool*
I already know they respond well to mods, especially breather n/a mods. The motors are definitely better than ours as this point. But saying 300hp is "easily achievable" is a different statement. I can put a SC on any motor and make 300hp. Ours already do that.

The problem lies on the FWD, torque steer, and trying to get the car to hook up with relatively thin tires. With 300hp and ~250tq

Let keep this on topic on the NEW CTR, not some old k20 motor
