So you don't like the flat torque-curve?
Here is what you can do...whenever you're accelerating in-gear, hold it at a very light throttle load until you hit an arbitrary VVEL engagement-point of your desire. Say that point is 5000 RPM...as soon as you cross 5K, nail the throttle. Instant VTEC-like rush that pins you in the seat from 5000 to 7500 RPM.
Makes driving a lot more exciting.
