Its strange how his torque curve takes a dive at 5250rpm. Usually the boost taper is more gradual, not a sudden dive like that

it looks almost like a misread or something, do the other print out look the same? cuz the torque flatlines right up to the intersection, then it stedily declines, which I've never seen that linear of a decline in torque...looks wierd...

HP and Torque are very close relationship to each other.
HP = Torque * RPM / 5252.
Basically, The current stock ECU + Turbo + Injectors is reaching a max torque. @ 5200 rpm or so, with no more power and nothing bad happening, the torque curve degrades as hp flatlines. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think is an ideal graph for a Turbo car of my setup. I'm pretty happy that I didn't see more HP gains after the torque peak because that would have been due to boost creep most likely. And my AFRs are stable so pulled timing or detonation was NOT happening.
So I think I've got a strong engine so far and I'll be feeling mighty confident when I get Mike & GST to tune it with better enginemanagement & turbo.
Edit: Here are the other 2 graphs.

You are kinda gettin in backwards. You are correct that HP is directly linked to torque in the ratio you posted
However, torque is the real thing that the dyno measures, then HP is calculated from that. For cars like the STi with smallish turbos, peak torque comes around peak boost, then as RPMs climb (so does heat), the turbo starts to go out of its efficiency range and boost starts to taper. As boost fades, so does torque. HP stays flat since RPMs are increasing
Thats why it looked stranged to me...it didnt really taper at all from 3500-5k the just takes a nose dive in such a linear fashion
I wonder if there are so calibration constants that were slightly off...
Jabels is how they normally look
As far as running rich, no, you dont want to "fix that" short of a proper tune
A local evo guy said yesterday "you can run rich for months, but you can only run lean once"
