    I have 99 manual trans and in 1st gear (part throttle) anyone notice that there is a noticable sudden increase in acceleration at or approx 3400 rpm??? I mean really noticable? I realize that the intake valves transition but it is really obvious. I have a single staged non valved exhaust by the way.

    That is where this motor starts to come onto the power band so yes, they feel that way.

    Man, I'll have to let you know when I come down below 5k.

    Seriously though, I don't feel anything sudden like a turbo or something.
