SL600 dyno chart (issues?)
I'm interested in buying an SL600 that had been chipped. The seller sent me the graph below.
The power and torque look about right for a chipped SL600 (619hp and 731 torque adjusted for an 18% drive train loss), but the fact that the car appears to make almost no power until 3,600 rpm worries me.
Is the graph just off? Do you think the tires were slipping until 3,600 rpm? The torque should come on right away

It looks like they just didn't get on the throttle at a lower rpm. What does seem odd is that the info on the graph is cut-and-paste text. It does look like a Dyno Dynamics graph, but without the usual 'other' info that comes with a printout this could be from anything.
