Bryans n63tu didn't neither did terrys 2011.

Only 2 I know that didn't.

So Not ALL lose power (skyrocket downward) after 5k
Yes, when you start to learn and accept that cars dyno differently due to different conditions, like air temps, altitude, gas octane and quality, wheel/tires, gear dyno'ing in, dyno operator, heat soak, dyno equipment, hood open/closed, fans on, ect. Especially turbo cars which dyno less consistently than N/A cars.

I agree not all lose power at the same aggressive rate at high RPMs, but many do. Point here is that variability between cars is normal.

Spend some time looking through N54 and N55 tuned dynos. You'll see....
