Webcast engine factoids

- siamized cylinder bores (to be expected with larger bore)
- 40 percent more area with new 90 mm TB
- 30 percent reduction in induction system restriction
- 10 percent less exhaust system backpressure
- 90 percent torque bandwidth from 2500-5800
(I estimate 80 percent torque bandwidth from 1200-6500)
