Why P31 does not increase torque?

With a 60 hp gain as evidenced by dyno results, can somebody explain why there is no concomitant torque escalation?

I like the feeling of being thrown back in the seat when accelerating -- will the p31 increase in hp cause a more intense thrown-back feeling or will there be no difference in that sensation from the stock c63 because the thrown-back feeling comes from the torque?

Thanks in advance for any and all replies...

P31 improves the torque curve instead of upping peak torque. Simply put, you'll get pushed back in your seat for a larger portion of the rpm band.
