And thats solely because GM doesnt have a capable FWD trans that can handle barely 300 lb/ft or barely 280 hp . The GTP is a MUCH MUCH faster car when all the torque mangement tables are programmed out of the pcm . It wouldnt take long at all for the trans to go boom though . Without TQ Mgt. the GTP would be one of the fastest 4 door large mainstream sedans on the market .

Great move , be it a obvious one for Saturn . Its about time .
