I guess that explains why the power didn’t impress me much when the engine first came out, and also clears up why the non-rev-up VQ35DE still doesn’t have as much wtq as compared rev-up and HR. You mean why the non rev-up DE is rated for more wtq than the rev-up and HR, right? In the case of the revup DE, though… the non-revup IS more torquey… they both go by the older SAE standard. Just the HR falls under the new standard. > [@evo8 \> cobra](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/evo8-cobra/876/8): > > Everyone entitled to opinions, but based on my opinions, the HR doesnt have that much potential… I also have to consider the R&D which has to be done before creating new aftermarket support which is costly especially for a new car. Yes, but your opinions are based on nothing more than your own hunch, and no experience. I can accept that that’s your opinion, but it doesn’t mean anything (no offense intended with that statement). R&D is always expensive for new engines, but it still gets done. That’s nothing new. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/vq35hr/132358)._
