How about 4500 RPM?!
I didn't say I want peak torque in park position.  |
apparently someone doesn't exactly know what he bought and need some education
check out this graph for the n54 engine torque shown in
red 
the basic advantage of these new engines found throughout the X6 range is that the max peek torque is found at lower RPMs than the usual and continues all the way to around 5000RPMs (for the 35i) rather than having the max at high RPMs in what is so called "high revving engines" that BMW is known to build (the one in the e9X M3)
and here's the graph for the M3 to compare (by PencilGeek)
as you can see the torque curve doesn't have that straight line the turbo engine does
check out the torque graph for your engine and you will be surprised to find out that the curves looks quite similar to the one shown above with slightly different numbers
hope that you got the idea
