I know it was posted somewhere, but are too lazy to search for it and/or do not know the search function well enough. ;D

I am specifically interested in the engine character differences between these two.
I understand the R makes more kW, but would like to know the following:
does the R come with less torque then, and
is there a difference in the "flatness of the torque curve in comparison
what RPM is max figures optained for these two engines
Are the "lower" R models (newer) the same height as the S?
thanks
