Guess that's drive train loss for you although it interesting that it doesn't effect it really much at all before 5k rpms.
Same thing was happening to me....the traction control would only start engaging around 4000rpms. Therefore the torque seems to not get affected because all the torque this car creates is before 4000rpms. If you look at my dyno sheet my torque is at 350 till about 3500rpms but my max hp was 285....all because the traction control was boggin me down atfer 4000rpms..when all the hp kicks in. The above two graphs i would bet would be within 1-2 hp of eachother if they did it on a mustang, because thats how much torque it loses due to awd...torque didnt get affected in these graphs because dtc didnt kick in till about 4000 rpms.
