These are the proceed boost curves between the various stages (0-3). Admittedly, I should have looked at this first before commenting as the stage 0 curve is pretty much what you got, albeit I didnt think going over ~13psi would have occured.

I was basing my opinion on my own car reaching 243rwkw on a mainline dyno (reads about 20rwkw less than a dyno dynamics) with only rev2 7-29 maps and mid-pipes. The boost curve on that was identical to the aqua line in the 7-29 graph on the link, which is what I assumed yours should have looked like. But the stage 0 is weighted far more heavily in the lower rpms as Adrian said.
Don't assume that a mainline always reads lower. I can show you a mainline and a dyno dynamics where the DD reads 20kW lower than the Mainline. Like all dynos, the results are difficult to compare unless same dyno and same day. Even then, the wheels/tyres can make a difference of 20kW.
