I may be wrong but I suspect the 58mm throttle body might be hurting your torque.

Maybe need to get it tuned by someone else, a reputable tuner?

I think the 58mm throttle body is hurting the torque, switched back to the stock 50mm after cleaning up the runners and polishing and smoothing out the whole inside, and it feels alot stronger down low..

They do seem like pretty low numbers for a stage 4

I had the S&S 585's in a previous build and loved them, great from midrange through to top end, they loved to rev. Should be ok at 10.5:1 comp too
