the dynoplots for the engine.......okay.

aty, you're going to have to be sure and tell us what you think of the power curve, especially in light of being an m3 owner.

it "looks" really peaky.

it's less of an issue in a 1900 pound vehicle, but it'd be fun to read your feedback about the power output in the rev range compared to the M3.
