Has anybody come across a dyno chart for a stock 98 V6?

But for a 2001:

hm... that can't be right - the 98 is rated at 193HP stock ... they seem to be way too low !??? (tnx anyway ... confirms my shift point of around 5000 ...)

The dyno chart shows rear wheel horse power. The 193hp rating refers to cankshaft hp. Drivetrain loss is aprox 20%, so the figueres sound right.

No, I do not think that this is true. The DIN rating is the engine output including all filters, mufflers and accessoiries, but excluding the drivetrain losses.
