I like a good flat torque curve, the higher the better, with limited slip and some Bridgestone SO-2 Pole Positions for traction.

Give me more torque!

Hi All:

Give me more torque. Low to mid range. Stump pulling neck snapping torque.

I live in Hawaii and lots of hills to climb. More torque the better. Not too many long streches to let the ponies fiy.

Aloha,
Eric
