Yeah, everything sounds good on paper! Notice they even metioned IT all depends on the GEARING!
I just don't think the OEM drivetrain will take many of 7,000+ rpm drop abuse; this car is not meant to be a drag car! The 0-60 time is only there for the reference (or may be Honda's marketing to sell)

Anyway, I rather burn my clutch (ridding on the clutch) than break (high speed drop) my driveshaft or crunch the gears in my differential. Just go and check out the price on the differential and driveshaft Vs. the clutch disk and Pressure plate. I launch my S at 3,500-4,000 and shift around 8,000-8,500!
