A few have spoke of the smoothness of the Porche engines. For a flat six (horizontally opposed), alot of the dynamic forces from one bank are cancelled out by the other. If you think about how the engine operates, this is pretty easy to understand. Unfortunately, that is not the case with our V shaped engine.

Tranceformer, did you notice anything significant when switching over to your JWT flywheel?
