I think the feel is partially the sound, the M42 has a much more metallic sound when revved, Probably because the forged crank is stiffer and does not absorb the power impulse as much. I noticed this when I did a rebuild on a chevy V8 and dropped a forged crank in, the engine was louder....Sortof.. I know my M42 is way happy up near redline, compared to mid range, I wish it was easier to adjust the DISA setpoint, I think if it hit at 3800 and WOT it would be way cool.
