most likely a combo of a clogged cat (if its clogged) and the dumptube exhausting hot exhaust right back into the compressor of the turbo.
sounds like you have a fine tuner...fix your issues and bring it back to him. it's not his fault you brought him what you did.

Re: tuned, but low numbers???
is it intercooled?
toss the Catalytic converter.. run open dp, ******
fix the dump tube
check your cam timing
any Check engine lights?
you should be making 230-300 whp at a 10 psi tune on stock b16a

Re: tuned, but low numbers???
yeah that torque is good at peak. the reason the power is so low is because the torque falls off so hard after peak. id like to see the timing tables on that one. the cat i most likely a large problem but you have other issues to lose almost 70ft/lbs between 5700ish-8K.
if you can get that thing to hold torque flat to redline it should make 240ish
