Torque is what wins races and makes cars funner to drive, as any V8 owner knows.

You're the one that invalidated my opinion on anything automotive because one of my cars happens to be a 90 Talon. Like I've never driven, built, or been around high powered v8's, yet I choose the Talon as my DD to keep up with, or beat them for a 1/4 of the money they've dumped in their cars. The only guys around me I won't be contending with soon are my friends dad and brother, both work at Ford and building cars for the last 20/30 years. Yet they still respect what dsms are capable of.

4G63s are not your average Honda. They tend to have very nice TQ curves in general terms and very level ones compared to other 4 bangers. Hondas and others tend to have heads that are more suited to top end flow and higher compression meaning less boost and less midrange but sometimes more top end.
