Well, once again, opinions are like belly buttons.

I will tell you though, even trying to keep the rpms under 4200, it still got into the high 5 or low 6 a couple of times while leading a fun run.

But overall, I was very good and patient............I must say, the power and torque I do get is awsome from 4500-6500 and running around and cruising at 3-4K makes me feel safer to accelerate when needed and the sports exhaust sounds so good...........................

One of the reasons I was able to keep it under 4300 rpms is that I litterally live on and am surrounded by the twisty roads taking curves at 20 miles over the posted limit.

During the 30 day breakin period, it gave me time to save for my Valentine
