Your right, you might wanna look and see if your VVT is working proporly. I see a good power band across untill the torque and HP cross, but then at 6500 RPM it drops to what is was at 1500 RPM. The torque I thought was suppose to be alomst 200ft/lbs, and with only 5% loss to the wheels for torque (I remember someone saying that) I'm not sure if it's proporly broken in.
I'm probably totally wrong, please someone flame me, but anyways that's some pretty good numbers on a stock 3.0 Mazda engine.
Be proud, with a little modding, you can pump that puppy up

176.3 HP ~ 215 HP 18% loss
172 TQ ~ 181.1 TQ 5% loss




This is the second V6 MTX dyno I have seen that is this way. I think Mazda either has a restrictive intake or exhaust, maybe both. Change those and I'm sure you'll be looking at 190+ to the wheels.
