any ideas
Don't believe everything you read on a dyno printout.

I have seen 140 - 210wp, for NA cars, on dyno graphs and *every* dyno operator will claim that their dyno is right.

As the crossover of power/torque is 7k and not near to 5200rpm, there is something seriously amiss with the dyno calculations, as technically its impossible!

E.G HP = Torque * RPM/5252

Go to someone who knows what they are doing?
