Messing with the Gillet Vertigo's horsepower to meet a PP restriction, I noticed something odd. As you turn down the power, the PP goes UP!

Here are the numbers:

hp.. tq.. PP
500 525 623
550 545 644
600 564 654
650 580 661
700 593 667
750 600 671
800 600 671
850 600 667
900 600 653
950 600 650

The glitch seems to have something to do with the point where the power limit point is after the torque peak. I thought maybe the area under the curve of the torque was somehow bigger, but the curve at 100% power is clearly taller and wider.
