I believe boost is added by the EBC in the latter part of the RPM range to compensate for the losses you describe.

I really don't see it as much of an issue unless you like to drive at 7500 rpm and max HP... the midrange power and torque is phenomenal and a slight taper at top end is no real world loss to most people that DD or do not track their cars.
