because people want a power band that is larger than 2000 rpm. Sure if you just want straight line speed smack a massive turbo on, do the appropriate headwork and tune it and away you go. It might last 10000kms if you're lucky. Most people, don't have the disposable income to rebuild that often, Sean aka GTR ETA parts owns (?) ASG and is their tuner, which says a lot for how he was able to make his car such a demon. Full access to workshop facilities and a dyno.
If you search on here i'm sure his dyno graph is around somewhere and the area under the curve is fuck all. It was built as a drag car and it did that very well, but as for other aspects of motorsport, i don't think it would be any fun to drive/ be competitive.
what is the saying, straight line racing is a quarter of the fun?
