The definition of "linear" is as follows:
Here's a preliminary dyno plot of the SOT roots SC on an AP2:
I see nothing non-linear about the power delivery of the roots style blower. It provides the most beautiful hp/tq curve that I have ever seen. One who talks about prefering a linear power band shouldn't even have a car with a VTEC motor because the power output of a stock S2000 is hardly linear to begin with.

Vtec looks a little abrupt for tracking. I personally like it when there is a smooth transition even if it means sacrificing some power.
Looks like the VTEC should be at around 55-5600 for that setup.

Ideally the VTEC should happen right where the curves cross.
Isn't it dependant on the way the cams are designed, and to kick onto the high lobes just before the low-lobes start to lose power? How is it that the crossing of the torque and HP curves are anything other than coincidental?

this is perfect for Track s2000's , the hp/tq curve it provide will never spun u away at the hight speed conrnering , and i had never seen any turbo s2000's hp/tq curve in that way
(my dyno graph is in my s2ki gallery)

You are trying to tune for torque not the horsepower curve. There is better resolution of when the power begins to fall off with the torque curve rather than the horsepower since hp will continue to rise as torque begins to fall.
