In complete fairness, VNTs aren't all about delivering it all down low... It gives you the ability if you want to, but it's more about the response...
My car will build 10psi literally INSTANTLY from about 1400rpm... Then from 2k onwards it's at full boost... Doesn't mean you have to give it all the fuel there... It's just that rather than waiting for the turbo, you can map it how you want the power to be delivered, but you aren't waiting for that power delivery to come - if you catch my drift?
You can be mid way round a corner, lift and drop boost, then go back on the power, it'll take SO much less time for the turbo to spin back up in comparison to a normal WG turbo, that's where IMO you really notice it.
You can create such a FLAT powercurve, bring in the torque super fast, but limit it, but keep it flat all the way to the redline... That's the entire point... IMO they're totally worth the money for the increase in response.
