476 rwhp / 522 rwtq: more torque = potential problem?

Hey guys - this is the spec of the car:

L99
1 3/4 kooks lt and kooks 3" exhaust
magnacharger tv2300
22" rims
rotorfab air intake

i got 476 rwhp / 522 rwtq.

The car runs solid, but do u guys think theres a potential problem with the engine because of the torque numbers?

thanks

nvm guys, my tuner answered the question.

"It’s normal with your motor and kind of supercharger. You supercharger makes instant boost, so you get full boost at low rpms, which added lots of torque and the L99 automatic motors do not rev nearly as high as the LS3 motors in the manual Camaros nor does the L99 auto motor make top end horsepower like the LS3."

It is Typical for L99s to make more torque than power due to the small Cam.

Yup, your tuner is spot on. It's not unusual with certain cars with PD blowers.
