What I dislike: still a little bit under-power if this is an M car. The interior is not very interesting."

So 60-100+ ft lbs of torque over the S54 makes it under powered? You do know that torque moves a vehicle right? HP is just a function of torque?

Race engineers tune the torque "area under the curve" to match the chassis that the power plant will be installed in.
