Do you mean my torque or yours? Both of them show a peak at relatively low rpm followed by a very slow decrease as is characteristic of the N52. If you mean because of the dips 3250 and 4500 rpm that's exactly what you expect from a 3.0si with its 3-stage intake (econo-mode from idle to 3250, mid-range from 3250-4500 and wide open above 4500). I'm somewhat surprised your dyno doesn't show this as much as I've seen it in dynos from other si's, but I'd still think that's within the range of variation you'd expect to see.

Also the 255 hp spec for the 3.0si is crank power not rwhp. About 215 rwhp is to be expected.
