Oh, yeah, this. The motor is really happier when you're beating on it.
A tune and pulleys/exhaust make a huge differrence in mid-range torque. (although they still are happy up top).
The one pull we did on my car while we were tuning it, we tried a "max power tune". It hit 343rwhp on first pull with max power at 7800rpm. I was hoping for 320 :lol: So we pulled down power from there and never got to see if it would make more.
