Am I doing it wrong? I'm not used to wringing-out a motor and was just trying to baby it.

This is a custom tune with Robert at Drive Auto in Everett, WA. I would rather leave it how it is since I love the drivability, but I want to keep it in the realm of reliability. I'm ready to buy a new tranny if I have to, but I only have 8k miles on the car haha

ZERO issues so far *knock on wood* I am just trying to be mindful....feel like I might be bordering paranoia now.
@86TOYO2k17 What RPM would you consider "lugging" the engine? 3k or lower? Let's say in 3rd gear.
Cant see the dyno at work, but I assume if you googled how HP is calculated you would have your answer.
