My Sportster ran good - over 4000 rpm. I should have left it stock.
Where does it end? Unless you want to do some serious mods (cams, pistons, turbo, blower), you're not going to get into the serious power range above 180 hp.
One nice thing about Tuneboy is that you can download the program, user manual, and different tunes for free and see how the bike is tuned. There are 3 main fuel tables, 3 low throttle position fuel tables, a table that opens or closes the secondary plates, 4 ignition timing tables, a fuel trim table, an A/F table. Tuneboy lets you correct the speedometer, which reads 7% high and increase the maximum speed cutout.
The big downside to Tuneboy is that it is really difficult to find a tuner who can tune it directly using Tuneboy. And expensive. I got Tuneboy when it came out and eventually, Tuneboy did a dyno tune for an R3 with my exhaust (TORs/cat bypass) and it works fine for me. But it's not a custom tune for my bike.
Since you've already spent money on the GiPro, the PCIII route is a good route to consider. First, get your dealer to load the 20222 Triumph tune (for stock exhaust with filled catalytic converter). This tune has the secondaries 100% open in 4th and 5th so with the GiPro set for 4th and 5th, you don't have to remove the secondary plates - they will be open 100% all the time. As far as I can see, there's no difference in the fuel tables between this tune and the stock tune for aftermarket exhaust - both will probably be lean for Jardines.
Before you buy the PCIII, get it on a dyno with the 20222 tune loaded. If you're happy with how it's running, the power curves are smooth and it's not too lean to burn up your pistons ( higher than about 14??), stop!
If it's not running so good and it's lean, you can install a PCIII (with the PCIII O2 controller) yourself. Dynojet has a tune for the PCIII for Jardines. It's M510-004 on their web site:

Maybe they can sell you the PCIII with this already installed. If not, just download this tune to your computer, hook the PCIII to the computer with a USB cable, and load it into the PCIII. You need to have the Triumph 20222 tune in your ECU or the PCIII won't work right, because, this tune is what DynoJet had in the bike they did the dyno tunes for their canned tunes. Note that the new PCIII O2 controller must be installed. This is a little white plug that replaces the connector from the O2 sensor.
Then, go to a good DynoJet tuner and have it test for power and A/F. $50. If you're happy with the power curves and A/F, stop! If not, spend another $250+ for a custom tune for your PCIII.
If you later put triple filters on, get the PCIII retuned.
