I would trust this over the secretary.

Okay. I am willing to believe the 700 wtq number, but not the 1200 - 1400 LOL
I was like wtf....when she told me that. I honestly believe she was thinking HP or something or trying to lie to my face about it, no idea but either case...1200 - 1400 seems way too crazy.

You spoke to them right now? -- Or this was over a year ago when Tony said that?

I'll give them a call later today and ask again... and then ask what parts of the transmission make it hold that much TQ if at all, then report back here!

Thanks for your input topz! Makes me want to re-investigate again.
