I also agree.  We spent time dyno testing several Garrett/KKK hybrids over 
the past months... only to find that the torque put out by the RS2 hasn't yet 
been beat.  My own car put out a little over 400ft/lbs at 3800rpm, and 325hp 
peak at about 4800rpm.  These figures were on a Dynojet Research unit, and at the 
wheels.   So as far as daily driving goes, IMHO it has yet to have a 
challenger.

However... add a light flywheel, a tube EM, and a GT30R... reprogram your 
driving style a bit (+1000rpm)... and it's a whole new world.
