Can anybody tell me why they don't use torque meters in pistons? surely this would immediately cancel out the massive misunderstandings about MAP limitations. The red line is only there as a legal requirement and indicates the maximum that could be used at certain alt/temp combinations. Most of the time (in my experience) the limit is something lower than the redline so using the red line as a limit would have meant continually exceeding the limitations of the TRANSMISSION...
