Italian term or phrase: superallungo
Can't figure out this word. Don't even know its meaning. Here's the whole paragraph: "Il tutto condito da un’innovativa sospensione a controllo idraulico, che rende attive le barre di torsione. Risultati: leggerezza, motricità elevata (grazie alla barra attiva), superallungo del motore, con potenza a 7.000 giri/min e limitatore a 8.500. Davvero divertente. Inoltre, la cellula di carbonio è realizzata secondo un nuovo processo, dalle prospettive allettanti."

rpm extra increasement


Explanation:
Superallungo: super+allungo seems to mean a huge increasement of the engine rpm.
My translation into English is just a try.

Example sentence(s):
