Oh n figures matter massively... So unbelieveably useful to be able to see where and when it makes power, boost lines etc... But maybe I am learning here that having SO much power doesn't mean SO much fun. ....I mean tbh, the mrs 206 stg1 HDi is a right hoot to drive...even in saggy suspension mode!
That isn't figures you find useful though. Thats a graph which shows where it makes its peak power etc which i agree with you is useful because you can then see where things need altering to smooth that graph out and alter it to how you want the car to drive.
Tbh I've always said power is far from everything. i know i sound like a broken record with this but its like the eaton 6's vs the low boost Lynx 6's. Yeah the Lynx kit has more power but what use is it when its making less than standard power until about 5k and only makes a great improvement over standard at 6k+? To me, thats not all that drivable and so i would rather have 30hp less but with peak torque at a little under 4500rpm.
But then thats just my personal opinion. Some people are all about figures.
