The STS may not be able to make 600+, but its not quite as rough on your con rods with the high RPM spool either.  |
This is why you use timing to "ease" into it if you wish. A ST (close to the engine) will spool up by 3500rpm, you can see that in post #42, as peak tq is reached by 3500rpm. At the same time you can use timing and cam phasing to keep the torque lower/flat, to prevent rod damage. There is a lot more to tuning than just a/f.
