Most lope tunes are made using ICP tables and setting them at idle so that the ICP is excessively low at about 600 to 800 RPM which causes the idle to drop off. Then you aggressively ramp the ICP from 0 to 600 RPM which then slingshots the engine back up over 800 RPM.
It's not the worst thing you could do to your engine but I will say that I have seen a couple lope tunes with almost 15 MPa in the 0 to 600 RPM range which can't be very good. It like trying to go full throttle every second.
I personally do not care for either the Lope or Smoke tunes, but people want them so we may as well provide them. We just do what we can to make sure they're safe.
Take care.

Bring back  Windows™ XP and 7. 
Windows™ Vista and Windows™ 8 is a pain in my a$$! 
Windows™ 10 is only slightly less annoying! 
Windows™ 11 is garbage!
