I liked your little chart, I do the same sort of thing but I do it for torque applied to the diff through the rev range - same ultimate goal of course as discussed in the last few posts.

I mentioned this earlier but it is a shame they didn't keep 550nm all the way through - to copy paste what I said earlier:

They could have kept 550nm all the way to 6500rpm to have the manual make 375kw from 6500rpm to 7200rpm like the 8AT


That would make it feel much more N/A like and revvy
