It really doesn't have anything to do with the torque curve.

The engine is effectively an air pump - it pumps air through the cylinders and the fuel is metered by computer to be stokiometric.

The more air pumped, the more fuel is metered.

More air pumped at 4000 than at 2000.

Nothing to do with the torque curve.
