Even though the BMEP drop over 400 rpm seems pretty high compared to other high-hp motors, but I still think it is more accurate than both the other figures that have nearly identical BMEP numbers for their torque and HP peaks (this DOESN'T HAPPEN).
I find myself believing that number than any of the other figures floating about. Even if some of those numbers came from a brochure.

What would be trollin if Subaru and Toyota downplayed the power figures to attract a certain crowed or cheated some law or government restriction. But put it on the dyno and its shows that the engine plays a different tune than on paper.

I remember when the Nissan GTR was released and weeks later shops that had it on the dyno said that Nissan downplayed the figures upwards of 15%. It was making more power at different RPMs than said on paper. Then months later several shops with different dynos confirmed this.
