No doubt....anxious to see torque curve and if it really does fall off at 5,000 rpms :confused:

Yeah, cant even imagine the little bitty torque an M3 would have considering it's not much to begin with.

Actually Smoke you're wrong. New M3 despite having less torque than the IS-F has an extremely flat curve and holds the torque all the way through to redline and is an extremely well built motor. And the torque comes on quickly as well. Interesting to note, only a 15% drivetrain loss on this dyno run below!

Word to the banana!

Did you guys notice that link I posted said someone ran a 370 hp run on a dyno with the new M3? I don't know about that, but I know that 330-340 sounds too low for the IS-F. The car feels faster and the new M3 put out 350 hp....interesting :)
