Default what does my power graph show

Can somebody please tell me what this shows? I'm talking about the torque peaking then dropping off very quick.
I've been told it may be down to my exhaust not being a big enough bore thus it can;t flow any more gasses...is this right? any thoughts from anyone.

Red line is torque
Pink Line is Boost
Blue Line is BHP @ Fly wheel
Green is BHP @ Wheels

I take it you phontoshopped the lines o make them more visible?

Is that a 1.9 convesion as the torque looks good for a 1.6..drops quite hard though.

Was the run aborted? did they back off for any reason? seems very strange that peek torque and peek power were acheived at exactly the same RPM theres something not quite right there.

yes it is a 1.9, don't believe the run was aborted.
i think I may have a weak actuator.
am thinking:
-34 actuator
vernier pulley
new exhaust - as scorpions a notoriusly restrictive

remap on the omex and see how it does.

any thoughts?
