i don't really see how the graph is accurate, looks like a 3 year old set up the dyno. i can envision several pulls on one graph but that one makes no sense when looking at it. i can't tell whether to rotate it or look at it sideways, lol.

Yea, I can't say I'm pleased with the graph. It looks like he let off the gas several times during the pull causing the curve to go "backwards"

it also doesn't accurately show my power curve in general... which kind of disappointed me.

Still, the car runs great, and pulls hard without stumbling. Plus I'm getting something like 18mpg (just an estimation, I'll post back with a calculated value once my tank gets closer to empty) which is way better than I've ever gotten before.
