Turbo selection and its spool characteristics are more important to where peak is actually produced.
you can't just 'map' for a low RPM peak, otherwise we would all be running around in cars that produce a peak at 1500 RPM. A 'road' turbo that can flow enough for 350 BHP is just too big to be producing boost that low.
The conversation has been about spread of torque, area under the graph, drop off after peak, driveability etc. This is where the mapper comes a bit more into it (or rather has more control about whats going on)

Thanks Mark
As far as i can tell AlanG built it just for road use, so looks like it's been well thought out if the results are anything to go by.
Dunno what he's done since then, but i heard there's another 100 bhp in there.
