The MR does not use a torque converter--it is not an automatic transmission.

It is a dual-clutch automatically controlled manual transmission.

Oh, and to the OP: I don't remember exactly what RPMs I'm turning at highway speed in my MR, but I can tell you that it's not noticeably "high". The GSR that I drove was very annoying at highway speeds, because of the high engine revs, compared to the MR.
