We generally do our WOT pulls from 2500 or 3000 on up. No real reason not to - sometimes the 2500 is hard to grab on a bigger or torque oriented engine so I have gone to 3000 as something of a standard. Not that unusual to hammer the throttle from a 60or 70 MPH freeway cruise without downshifting.

My DTS does not monitor inlet air volume, and I have become pretty reliant upon O2 sensor readings for fuel tuning. You can usually hear it when things are going well or wrong, and should spend the time chasing the power data - its rarely a wrong move when power is going up no matter what the "numbers" are.
