A class of spectral subgrid models based on a self-similar and reversible closure is studied with the aim to minimize the impact of subgrid scales on the inertial range of fully developed turbulence. In this manner, we improve the scale extension where anomalous exponents are measured by roughly 1 order of magnitude when compared to direct numerical simulations or to other popular subgrid closures at the same resolution. We find a first indication that intermittency for high-order moments is not captured by many of the popular phenomenological models developed so far.
