What is SOTP ?

And one more question... does anyone else mind the rpm hang when you get off the pedal???

It takes forever to drop back down! And not that any of you guys care about this next part... lol... BUT for us who want to drive the car slower sometimes, it makes for rough shifts because the rpm's are still hanging higher than the next gears speed.

Make sense?

I'll ask this, but I assume I'm correct...
How to get the motor to drop faster?

1. Lighter weight flywheel and clutch (meaning less centrifugal force carrying the rpms after throttle down)
and/or
2. Higher cylinder compression ratio
Yeah?

Oh yeah... and I havent even looked, but I assumed that they came with tubular exhaust manifolds.. no?
And so... getting shorty headers gives no gain or what?
