Christian, I would suggest that you get an exhaust gas temperature monitor, have it installed in your y-pipe and get a baseline with the stock ECU. Tune the EMS ignition map so that the timing is not too advanced (RETARDED ) so that you dont risk exhaust valve damage. It is also cheap insurance for a lean-run condition. High temperatures alert you that you are at risk of frying a piston.

I don't see any 25hp gain at 6k, but 6.5k sees some good gains. Also, the tq curve appears to be above the prior curve for the entire range of rpm. It's very impressive.

Christian, do you have the dyno files? (drf etc) maybe I can put them all in one graph for clarity. For now, here's a quickly done overlay:

No all I have is print outs. The dyno with two dynos on it are before and after cam dyno.
I can ask my tuner for a new dyno showing before and after EMS, since we did 3 baselines before plugging in the EMS and start tuning.
