Gentlemen, good discussion here about the differing power bands.
One thing I would like to point out with the ESS kit is that despite the lower boost in low rpm range, it still produces a lot more torque than stock and throttle response is further heightened. No need to grab a lower gear to pass in traffic ever.
But much more importantly, the ESS powerband actually allows you to use all that power in every gear. It matches the chassis perfectly and with a good set of street tires and maybe some more solid subframe bushings to unitize the subframe and chassis, you can actually out launch nearly every car including all wheel drive cars. I showed this in my vid above where I out launched a couple Audi AWD cars including an R8 v10 which is a low 3-second 0-60 beast.
