nope

They always cross at the same RPM because of the very definition of horsepower.

Yea, I think they are reffering to baseline HP, TQ graph and then

The HP/TQ graph with DB 1+. Again scaling of the two graphs it totally different....

Re: nope

SO either the car is calibrated wrong on the Dyno, or it is the scaling issue with the graph.

Need to see an updated graph before you could draw any conclusion..

Has nothing to do with calibration

The dyno only measures torque and then calculates HP from that. No matter what the numbers are for torque, they will <i>always</i> be the same as HP at 5252rpm.

it would be interesting to get graphs that were all scaled the same. Mention it and see what they

can do if you can?

If it has nothing to do with calibration and nothing to do with the scaling of the graph

Then the results must have been altered and photo shopped..

If you are correct then please explain this graph.

Amir, please know that the previous comment was not a shot at you.

I am just playing Devils advocate, I am eager to hear what his explanation is.

I think if the graph was re-scaled it would fall into line accordingly. I think before we see that any assumptions are pretty much inconclusive..

Thank,
Andrew
