More importantly is a flat power and torque curve.
A flat power curve would yield a slow car. A flat torque curve is what you want, and power goes up due to rpm
Ah yeah I was meant to say less of a peaky power curve.

Don't get too obsessed with all these figures. It's can be easily settled on the track. Lets face it. We are driving a sports car of at least 13 years old. Just do the best you can to maintain its health and enjoy the ride.
