since hp maxes at 5900rpm, the torque boost probably does increase power but it's not noted because past 5900rpm hp is decreasing. max hp occurs at lower rpm than torque.

Correct. The torque boost must occur at a lower RPM than would cause HP to increase.

I imagine that BMW let boost taper down to a similar level as the 35i near redline to avoid overclocking the turbos. Same thing Dinan did with their code. Hence the huge torque/modest power increases.
