Some body thinks like me..thank god...does it give much bottom end grunt ?...i wonder why suzuki dont fit a 6th gear for better on road performance with a higher range ratio ?... i dont know anyone who gets up to 5th gear off roading so why did they not the jimny box high ratio gears for 5th ?....you can bomb alone at 140 kph but rpm is 5k and jeep sounds like demented bee....

Boost starts at 1200RPM and comes nice and gentle to 2500 and then it adopts a different character altogether.
It's a small turbo so it spools really fast....I used to be in 4th up a local motorway hill@60mph......I accidentally did 95 in 5th yesterday....Naughty I know.
Off laning for a day in the lakes next month so I'll post back as that'll be it's first decent distance run.
6 speed gearbox is 3 projects away for the M13A engine.
