Think this could explain it?
"Q" Why do some dyno graphs dip down between 2,000 and 3500 rpm and then rise up. ?
"A" Usually this an indication of too big of an exhaust system, or too big of a carb or cams. Most people think that bigger is better and to some degree they are correct. However the bigger the carb, cams or exhaust means that the higher you have to rev your motor to notice a difference. Drag pipes are good but only at the drags. At the drags we launch at high rpm so anything that happens in the lower rpm's is not really important, but, for the street driver, he uses the lower rpm ranges all the time in his/her everyday riding. If the graph has a noticeable dip in the lower ranges then it most likely will not work at it's optimum. Sometimes there is a small dip because the test was done in 5th gear and 2000 rpm is to low to start the run. Also on a dyno there is no wind drag or hills to go up so you will see higher miles per hour than your car will do on the street. A dyno is a tool for checking overall performance, it is not the reality of driving on the road.

For those racing at elevations over 1500' above sea level, here are NHRA correction factors for altitude...stock class is down the page...in Denver it's almost 7%.
