Haha yeah! Damn right, gotta rev it to get it to go. I took my mate from south africa out in the car the other night and he thought there was a turbo in it. He was like "but at about 4k rpm, it just goeeess" and I was like "trust me, there is NO turbo" lol. I can't imagine one of these things with a turbo. Must be insane!

They are, with mine you can still feel the 4k kick but you also have the huge turbo torque
