Oh it takes it. We were worried about the transmission so we did a bit of work to make sure it was still safe. Torque is limited in first gear just a big to protect it and it's limited a bit on shifts so it doesn't slam into gear super hard. We also had WAY more torque while testing. I think the numbers close to 900 ft-lbs if I'm not mistaken. This engine is a BEAST from the factory! Ultimately we toned down the huge torque increase in the middle, while still leaving it pretty smooth and strong.
A few notes... other tuners have increased the power on this engine, but they haven't figured out how to properly control load to get Monsterous gains in the mid range. This took quite a bit of work on our part to figure it all out and by doing so we can increase load, and increase boost in the mid range to make these huge gains.
about 98 and 104 octanes... those are RON figures.
95 RON roughly = 93 (MON+RON)/2 in North America
98 RON roughly = 93 (MON+RON)/2 in North America
104 RON roughly = 104 (MON+RON)/2 in North America
Anyways, I figured you guys would like to see what we don't get here in the US. Drives us crazy!
