Huh?? This car loaded up fine on the dyno, it's a stock turbo 2.1!! The graph is fine, as I said to Zakk, it's simply the exhaust making that crap figure, had the pipe come off that'd have made 150hp...
Daves T04e 306 is a completely different kettle of fish here...
The car will never rev as high on the dyno, that's all to do with the pump, on the spot or in lower gears it'll happily hit 5000, but get it up in 4th and it'll never see 5000rpm without you literally holding it past 4500, but you'd be there all year... The governor reaches equilibrium as the revs raise, torque drops so you eventually don't have enough torque in a higher gear to pull it past whatever rpm... Hence just stopping, they'd have heard on the dyno the power was dying for fast so just lifted..
