Thanks for the insight. Indeed, something isn't right. The HKS dyno doesn't come close to matching the advertised engine power graph, even with the alternate 8500 RPM scaling. It ends up missing a whole bunch of low RPM torque, with an improbable torque slope below 3k RPM that wouldn't be caught dead in any recent-times OEM engine.
Indeed, we'll have to wait and see what the real production engine puts out.
