My 2 cents would be - depends on to whom you are going to target it for. While track drivers indeed often keep engine in high-rpm powerband .. there might be more customers that are daily-driving car then ones for which it's track-only, hence higher importance of power output in low & middle rpms and fix/absence of "torque dip" altogether. IIRC Nameless given choice of slightly higher top numbers or better middle "under curve" gone for later choice.
But then again if it's targeted for daily drivers, i'd think of other design choices aswell .. like option of catted header, and stock-looking heat-shield for those countries, where there are stricter smog / aftermarket parts checks .. or maybe even another option, like easy to remove or install back just Cat part, so that customer can have best of both worlds, most power or more legality, without taking whole header off for replacement.
EDIT
Ouch, missed "For the racing enthusiasts" at beginning of post .. then if it's targeted this way from beginning, max numbers at top rpms might be of higher importance from get go.
