Haveing a good tune and the ability to rev past the stock rev limiter helps alot also. when it comes to daly driving I almost like the fact that I can shift at 3500 rpm's and stay out of the boost, works great in the rain etc. I dont think I would go mutch bigger though IM thinking I'll go with a true GT35r when the 61 bites the dust.
Well said.

I like my powerband mid to high end too and boost lag really helps for a DD since it's not boosting so that's fuel saved. When power is needed it's just a downshift away. Isn't turbo lag aka traction control to some guys too.
