I don't need big torque, I was happy with the torque in my e86 n52 coupe, it's more about the torque being available down low and being accessible through crisp throttle response

the comparison I always turn to was the old prelude vs mx6 with the v6, the latter had that low end torque and throttle response that made me buy it over the prelude
