Best power range of a 1.4 8v?

At which revs is this engine most powerful? i kno "powerful" and "1.4" dont go together, but humour me

3000-4750, depends on engine tho

What do you mean by powerful?

I have a 1.2 16v and I find you get pushed back in your seat the most (I know, I know!) at about 4k revs but yet the RR graphs I have seen say around 5750 to 6200 is best.

Yea the whole "pushed back in the seat" thing lol. I know that powerful was the wrong word, buts its late and im tired haha

So you'd say 4000 for the 1.2? that going to be similar to mine?
