[Shotimes] slow sho, just driver?

[Ron DeReus]

True, but the torque curve is laying down a little by then and that is what
pulls, right?

Honestly, I know the thing will pull past 7000, but I've never had a car
that will do that before, and I'm not exactly comfortable taking it up that
far very often.   (Especially when Jim is telling me it's getting ready to
spit out the power steering shaft!  See other post.)

Thanks for the advice; I just need to get aggressive.

Ron

 Maybe just wind it out a bit longer? The HP peaks at 6000-6200 rpm on this
dyno chart from SHOtimes:
