I find it neither small, nor unrealistic, that 'blip'. Unless, of course, you expect max power to really cover the whole plateau like in the official charts. That blip does seem to have about the size of a NA engines' power peak. Anyway, 440 or 449 PS is evidence of underrating and not evidence of no underrating, albeit it indicates that 460 or even 480 PS was a bit optimistic.

My favorite quote from the article: "Gigantisch: volle Leistung bis zum Begrenzer - das schafft kein anderer Turbo"

If you take a close look to the upper end of the chart you can see that another nice little detail is underrated: Power sustains better, up to the limiter, than officially claimed.

Thanks for sharing the info and explaining the dyno.
