I think it's a little sarcasm.lol If I understand your question right, your asking why the revs go back down to 4-5k when shifting to the next gear right? That would be because of the gear ratios. I'm sure the srt-4 is geared way higher b/c it's a 4 cyl. I believe my eclipse has a 4.xx or something around there. So the revs aren't going to dip as much.
