It could make 400ft-lb WAY before redline..
It will more then likely make its peak torque well before its redline if it would like some type of a decent power band with a high redline.

Everyone arguing about it not having a high redline is funny. 7700 rpm is high plain and simple and 7700 on a turbo car that will actually make its peak power somewhat close to that without dropping like it feel off a cliff and still be drivable would be INSANE.

For everyone touting about how the Mclaren can do it (also would like to mention that its a MCLAREN SUPERCAR with an engine probably priced as high as an M3) check out its dyno



Yep that's peak power at around 7400-7600rpm....It could have a redline of 15000 rpm, if its not making power there why the hell would you spin it that high. that's like saying i have carbon ceramic brakes but i don't track my car... oh wait ...
