I would be VERY careful to state this as a general "fact"! Since presence and future is and will be the time for FI engines, all engineering efforts are being put into further development of FI technology. So the response time window of a modern turbo engine is getting more and more in the range of an NA engine. I expect the new ///M engines to be very good in terms of response time. That good that I expect the majority of people (without you advevo of course ) are quite happy with it. By the way: An FI engine with a redline at 7500 has for sure the same usable rev band as a NA engine with a redline of 8400.
So instead of repeating the same statement over and over and over again, I would recommend to wait and see and then drive the new model and then give an educated judgement.
Peace.
