It's a really nice set up for high power dyno competitions though

If you send me the vehicle run weight along with a VBOX .vbo or .dbn file, I'll see what power it makes on the street when you do an acceleration test with it, with that gearing though to do 100kmh to 200kmh you will probably be using 2nd and 3rd gears at a guess, rather than 3rd and 4th like we do.
It's not as "laggy" as you might think, but even if it didn't make full boost until 6k it still has a usable rev range of another 4800rpm. Assuming grip is equal, 2nd and 3rd gear will higher acceleration rates. Unfortunately I don't own a VBOX to be able to send you a log file.

You never commented on what you consider to be acceptable torque output at 5-5.5k and you term "high engine rpm"
