I was more wondering what the point of this very early peak torque was, because it looks like they're using the wastegate like crazy above 2000rpm.
I question the philosophy behind these very high boost at low rpm motors because it seems to me that they are very low speed optimized which is good for FE test cycles which are mostly looking at low acceleration rates and cruising (low load). I feel like the real world results (where people driving fast cars are more likely to actually use a bit more power rather than try to accelerate at the same rate as everyone else) would not see as much of an improvement. I guess for the OEM, all that matters is the window sticker and compliance with regulation.
