Seems a touch high. Mine is pretty poor below 3500 ish, after that she's fine :D

The ST202 isn't very torquey low down - mine progressively comes alive at 3000-3500 and then at 5000 ish - can feel a bit flat in gear at times especially when the engine's quite warm/hot - they run best in the evening when the air's cool/cold. Having said that, for the money, they're excellent cars from a standing start when using high revs through the gears.
