Hi again - I did some quick searching and came up with a URL for a torque curve of our engine. Its at: <http://www.cs.jhu.edu/~klm/Passat/engine_specs.html> You'll see that its pretty rough and it only gives general engine torque specs as opposed to gear/engine torque. But its better than nothing... I'll keep looking - you guys got me curious :-)... - - JC
