I would say I rarely get my FR-S up above 5k rpm. I drive it 90% of the time like a normal car (since it *is* my daily driver). Screw all this "because racecar" stuff. My car will almost certainly never see the track and it will never lay down a 1/4.
Personally, I'm fine sacrificing power up top for low-end oomph since I never drive at the redline. I'm not interested in launch control or any of that malarkey. I just want the car to feel a little more responsive on the throttle from 1.5-3.5k rpm. Depending on how much of a hit the fuel efficiency takes, I might be OK with it.
That said, I've had my eye on about half a dozen different FI solutions, but I'm withholding judgement and selection until they are more thoroughly implemented, tested, and flogged.

flatline seems to be getting a lot of attention... If you decide you want to drive like gmookher, you will still make more torque at those higher engine speeds then the centrifugal at the same boost pressure, in fact you will have more torque everywhere.
