Not directed at anyone in general and just stating the obvious... You can't determine and compare power band by referencing peak figures like 306HP vs. 332HP and 268 lb-ft vs. 270 lb-ft. Those numbers mean nothing [to me].

The VQ35HR and VQ37VHR are very much alike, but the VHR has a bit more fancy computer gizmos to help it achieve a flatter torque band. So instead of peaky torque and power, you get something that's more consistent and linear throughout the range.

So what I mean by the VQ37VHR not being as responsive down low is probably because for daily driving the throttle response is quite conservative. It's a different story when you floor it. So how do you think I feel?
