I think the result is fantastic, just starting to think of how one might be able to get some torque dip with the 2.4, and what it might do up top.

As it is, the engine specifications are literally a bullseye on the 'get Spuds interested' targets I had for Gen2. But of course, it's never quite good enough...


Edit, I used literally wrong. I'll leave it for your amusement...
