Torque management
I understand the diesel comes equipped with torque management to protect the drive line from the massive amount of torque that these engines produce. I am interested in learning more about how this works and how much torque are you actually putting to the ground unloaded 0-60mph? What do you have to do to feel the max torque? Also is there any torque management in the gas burners or is the max torque instantantly available?

I'm not sure how its changed in the latest iteration, but I know you don't get full POWAH until 3rd gear. 935lbs of torque right off the bat would just grenade things in the most spectacular way. I honestly have no idea on the gasser, I wouldn't think there would be a need with "only" ~400 lbs of torque.

I'd be interested in the max torque numbers through each gear and does the truck know to apply more torque when loaded/towing vs empty. Also, I imagine if the truck is deleted a programmer could unlock more instant torque.
