That's NOT the RWHP or "Rear Wheel Horse Power"
That is the BHP or "Brake Horse Power"
Brake Horse Power is always less than rear wheel horse power due to driveline losses. Which vary on a number of factors. A rough estimate for a RWD car is ussually 15%.
Thus probably roughly 155 RWHP when it was new.

No Turbo II is going to hit those numbers as all of them have lots of miles or a much-neglected low mileage motor.
Just knock off 15% for a DynoJet.
Other dyno have different drivetrain loss multipliers.
