Keep in mind, piston velocity in the 4.0 engine is greater than the 3.8, even though engine rpm's as measured are lower (8800 vs. 9000). This is due to a longer stroke.

me too was there
here you can hear clearly the difference between the Mezger of RSR and the new engine of GT3-R
let's hope for something derived from 991 rs

Sounds like a sequential gearbox with no clutch pedal...
