Ran my E34 M at the RGM dyno day on Saturday. Got to 188.7wkw at 6,500 rpm. Not too bad, me thinks although the results on the day seemed a little on the high side. That said, the graph suggests that beyond the 6,500rpm mark (which was where Steve tapped off), the power would've continued climbing a little.
For those who are interested, here are the results achieved by the M cars run on the day:
