I understand that you can kickdown anytime but with more low end torque car feels way less heavy and 8AT gearbox lets you use this torque without switching few gears back and you overtake other cars in a blink while not reving a lot. it’s not a rocket science to mount big turbo on engine, but to make it powerful at high rpms while still having great low end torque is not so easy as it looks  |
More torque down low means more shit will break. You want a linear power band. Max torque when tuned that low in the rpm means you're gonna blow up your transmission and probably snap driveshafts.
