I would like for someone next time they go get a dyno run to check the following.
1) What does the dyno curve look like with the engine bone cold versus the engine warmed up? The reason I ask is my car certainly feels stronger below 6000 rpm when it's cold. Probably has something to do with ECU advancing the timing and enriching the mixture during warm up.
2) I've heard people say that once the car is in lift, lift does not drop out until ablut 5500 RPM. I tried testing this the other day and it seems so, but it would be cool to get dyno confirmation not only of the lift kick out point but also the HP gains from 5500 to 6000 RPMs.
In case you haven't guessed, I'm looking to see what potential performance gains could be had from future ECU aftermarket products. If for example lift in the 5500-6000 RPM range only gives minimal HP improvements, I won't be so obsessed over this.
