Default I do agree with that for sure. It should start at or below 3000 rpm to capture the low end torque
that these engines put out.

Default I believe the idea behind the range of a FATS pull is that it begins somewhere under where a
second gear shift from red-line would put you.

Default Yeah which is fine for high end acceleration when shifting through the gears, but it
doesn't give you an idea on how much down low torque we have which is good for long gear pulls.

Maybe there should be two FATS.

Longer gear pull (e.g. 4th from 3000 to 6500) should also widen the gap between those w/ big ICs.
