Hey guys, I did an updated full review here if anyone is interested. Have also started modding the car! But agree with what people have said here, get the LCI with the b48 engine if possible!

Maybe some ppl drive on highway alot, but I think for those that mostly do city drives, 220nm at revs between 1k to 3k is more than enough.

220nm is enough to push the car up genting comfortably with revs around 2k - 3k rpm. For cars with N/A 2.4 with 230nm, you'll probably be screaming at 4k+ rpm all the way up

The torque is on demand la. It's not always 220nm all the way. The ECU will learn the way you drive and adjust accordingly. If you drive mostly in relaxing way, the throttle response will be slower overall
Exactly. I have an NA 3.0 and it feels heavy below 3k rpm.

I prefer driving the 1.6T in town as it feels more zippy in stop-go

max 220nm must happen before full power, and before full throttle
look up you engine chart and it will tell you at what rpm
you need proper rate of acceleration to get to feel the 220nm, for normal driving the auto will shift way earlier before peak torque... and usually when rpm is around this peak torque, car is already at speed and is hard to feel the pull

nope
from stock dyno I see... max torque ~2700, max power ~4700... full pedal on 6th ~5400...200nm... 220kmh. after remap gets about 280nm
tmn driving <2000 rpm, torque <150
you wanna feel the pull, your launch from zero need to keep rpm 2500-4000, let the auto do its job...

in order to get best of both world, get a high torque and high power..
At least Ketam 220nm with 170hp.. weight 1300kg.. best of both world..
318i 220nm but 136hp, weight 1500kg.. might be ok for city, but power to weight ratio, need to work hard on the engine to get it up to speed on open road.
