Top end meaning less hp than the HR.

What I did read is that the ft/lbs of torque in the 370 isn't that much over the 350's. Weird. They increase the hp way over the 350's, but the ft/lbs of torque just slightlty so.

higher redline and higher peak power is the caused the tq has not increased. Higher the motor revs, less tq it has.

I was kinda dissapointed that Nissan upgraded from a 3.5 to 3.7 but torque stayed the same and hp barely went up

I think an under drive pulley might solve what most of us are experiencing :icon17:

Not entirely, but it definitely makes it quicker to wind up to redline. On the bottom end, it feels a tad more responsive and easier to drive. I think it's something about the throttle mapping.
