For a stock engine I agree.

so looking at these two graphs we'd all agree that low and and midrange power was sacrificed for top end?
If you're spinning to 7300, that changes the whole ball game. So for you, I can certainly see defining things that way.

'Course I think either way, I would agree that those two graphs sacrifice low and mid to gain top end.

Hmmmm.... one way to define top-end is the rev range that a 2-3 shift and run to redline puts you...

this is just like asking about stage 1 vs. 2 vs. 3 heads. there is nothing written in stone to categorize these. but for me, i would bring the high range down a bit. id say:
low - 1500-3000
mid - 3000-4500
high - 4500-6000+
