The real deal should be the entry of ford and/or HPD with their turbo V6
you are quite obviously out of your depth on this conversation.......this quite easily done on the dyno or in the vehicle via ECU mapping, principally via ignition and fuel cutting techniques........in the vehicle the torque sensor on the axle would just cut down the spark and fuelling in order to limit the engines torque at a given rpm.
