Motor is currently at 16000 rpm.

Is the ESC adding 1* of timing or is the ESC adding 16* of timing ?
It's a little difficult to be very exact going off this example because it's missing an acceleration boost timing value. The top speed and acceleration timing are separate adjustments, but they still work together.

In this example if the slew is 1*/1000rpm and the motor is 1000rpm past the finish rpm, the esc will have added 1* of dynamic top speed timing. The total amount of timing is dependent on the acceleration boost as well though.
