The M series engine when properly tuned doesn't start to do anything interesting before 3000 rpm. If its VVT then that kicks in at about 4000 meaning they are clearly intended to be up in the revs before any action. Theres plenty of M series engines flying about in swifts with a 8000+ rev limiter set. Ive set mine at 6600, which is very conservative for what it can do.
Italian tune up time without telling the owner

That proves what Lambert is saying. They need revs and lots of them to get the best from the engine.This Jimny hardly accelerates above 3000 rpm except in 5th gear I can get to 100km/h at about 3200 rpm.
