it's a graph showing how much torque at each RPM will produce 200hp. so when we "know" we WANT 200hp, we can look at the graph and see how much torque is required at a particular RPM to achieve the desired power level. it's not reasonable for any production 2.0L n/a 4 cylinder to make 350ft.lbs, but it's entirely reasonable for it to make 130ft.lbs and rev to 8000rpm.
