I think this tune is simply very conservative in the upper rpm's, and a bit aggressive to start with as the torque is high. Of course each tuner will have a different power/torque curve. It is like a signature, despite the fact that both engine and turbo kit are identical.

Yeah I looked at one of the VSR dynos this shop tuned and it's similar in the upper rpms. I think he just dials it back a bit. As for the torque, it is high but comes on smooth which I feel is safe.
On another note, this car goes like a raped ape. I just took a friend for a spin and was giving it the beans on the highway. Accidentally spun 4th gear lol Damn this thing is fun but takes a little finesse to drive fast. I'm getting used to rolling into the throttle and putting the power down better. It's just so cold right now that traction is scarce. I thought I could hammer 4th without worrying about it but nope haha
