Is there more power in there?

you could stick a piggy back, throw some race gas in there and change your afr leaner to get that extra little bit of power out.

but you wouldn't wanna go back to 93 octane ever again.

The engine is built to rev. Just like the 600RR i just sold, theres nothing below 8,000 rpm but is crazy from 10,000 to 15,000 rpm

Roots style supercharger or turbo for low end grunt.

Or else gears to get to 6k+rpms quicker.

Or centrifugal supercharger to get "all 240hp" by 4.5k rpms.

(And roll on the throttle, don't "mash")

[QUOTE=room4-2,Aug 16 2007, 10:13 AM]In my AP1. Okay, so here's the Q. I am rollin down the road, when I feel the sudden urge to put yet another dent into the floorboard beneath the gas pedal..., and..., I wait for the RPM's to reach 6.5K to feel all 240 horses come to life. It is short lived though, because I soon have to shift, then wait again.

I guess that wasn't really a question, but this is. Is that powerband variable? Meaning, how can I adjust the curve to include more of the lower RPM range?

I can't believe that the big power is only available after 6000 RPM.
