How do you not notice the surge of torque once you hit 4800ish RPM? 20 torques is a pretty big difference over just 500rpm. I am so very sorry that I can actually feel the feedback from my car and want that extra 20 torque...

If 20 torque was nothing and just something princesses get their silk panties in a twist about, why do people mod their cars? Why even have a sports car? Why race or do auto-x?

I know as you get older you start to lose your senses, but come on, you don't need a dyno to tell you there is something different above 4800rpm. It might not be super noticeable in 1st, but in any other gear it is very readily apparent you just got more power when you go between 4000 and 4800rpm...

Well, 3nl, you may have a point there ......

When you get older, you know what the first thing to go is.

The second thing is your hearing.

The third thing is your eyesight.

Maybe the forth thing to go is ..... your butt dyno .......

Why not go all out and get rid of the tranny entirely?

If Koeniggsegg can do it, why not Toyobaru?
