Manufactures de-tune cars to make them safer and last "longer". Plus the goal for a car manufactor is to make the car hook and go. Makes it faster that way. They dont want to make it so the tires just spin as that is not good for anyone going WOT.
I had the same feeling as you when i first got my car 4 years ago. I had an 05 gto that i could just stomp on the throttle and light em up at will. But those pirellis are some soft sticky tires.
But you will notice a difference after your tune. Yes you dont pick up that much HP from a simple tune. But it allows the HP to act more freely.
