Edit: Just looked at Honda engines, looks like torque peaks around 4000 rpm, little more. Ok, never mind.

I guess that could be the case. SA is quite littered with small cc 4 cylinder cars, mostly naturally aspirated so torque peaks are high. Other issue we have living in Johannesburg is that we are situated about a mile above sea level which leads to N/A cars losing some power compared to forced induction engines.
