No mid-range torque compared to what?

I was being sarcastic. some on here had claimed it was weak in the midrange even compared to a middleweight 4. I disagreed and someone produced a dyno with only 37 ft lbs torque, prolly from a 675 with one spark plug wired pulled...They normally have 8 or 10 on a 600.
