H2 Bill is an unknown quantity at this point

Actually torque management is fairly simple. It is part of the computer program that "reads" how much torque your engine is producing and once it gets to the programs' max torque setting it backs off or retards your ignition thereby reducing the strain on your drive train. GM has been using this method of reducing drive train and transmission problems for several years now on their vehicles. Most other vehicles it happens right at the shift point but on the H2 it also occurs right when you need the torque the most. When you install the supercharger and don't eliminate the T/M it actually "magnifies" the problem.
This is certainly a simplified explanation but I hope that it helps you get the idea!
