How did you come to that conclusion. Not having a go, I just have never had a dyno chart explained to me. What do all those numbers and sqiggly lines tell you?

THe big number in the top right corner says "Max 230.7 HP".
A HP to KW converter found through google tells me this is 172KW.
The left side numbers are HP, the right side numbers are PSI (boost). The solid line refers to HP at WOT per KM/h (i'm not sure why it isn't in RPM)... The dotted line is PSI at WOT per KM/h. This would have been done in 4th gear.

Please jump in and correct me if I'm wrong, that's just the way I thought it went...

1kw = 1.3 HP roughly
so 230/1.3=176
I guess I was also asking for confirmation to make sure I have the correct No's.
and I'm still asking

Sorry Stan, yes, 176 kw is close enough to 230 hp.
