Got it. Yeah, That's a great way to show the variability in dyno graphs. Same car, same dyno, but the machine margin of error and perhaps the atmospheric conditions affect the figures in a material way.

I'm not surprised by this run. BMW has been under rating its turbo engines. I typically go by base assumption that T0 and T2 motors are 600 hp. T4s are 620.
Agreed! Even as the engine temperature increases the power curve will change, there is always uncertainty in the measurements
