yep, flat torque -> linear power deliver. Yumm.

By comparison, check out the jump in torque @ 7000RPM with Honda's 2002  
VFR:

RPM->HP->FtLb
6800, 62, 49
7000, 75, 55

equivalent to going from ~5200RPM to ~6400 on the ST w/ tune. There's  
even a little dip in the torque before the VTEC boost hits. How nice.

Yes, IMO VTEC is a stupid idea, or at least needs a smoother  
activation. Honda actually first tried it 15+ years ago with the  
CBR400F:

but they called it REV back then. And it was very unpopular then, too.
