Modern ecu or not, a car on the verge of stalling due to being lugged is going to happen regardless. So if what your saying is true, then your car would be running smooth at 200 rpms while it's choking to death going down the road. I don't see that happening.

You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

Well, of course you are going to stall the engine sooner or later. That is not the issue at hand.
I assume we are all "smarter than a fith grader".
