how about i show you a car that makes low end torque and doesn't have to rev to 9000 to make decent horsepower....

you realize that horsepower is just a function of torque and RPM right?

horsepower = Torque X RPM / 5252

the higher you rev your torqueless wonder, the more horsepower you make "mathematically"

that's the one and only reason an S2000 will make 207whp on a dyno and only put down 135lb/ft of torque. revving the piss out of it.
