In the table it shows that 500kW occurs at 95% (fractions are dimensionless) of the maximum engine speed. The power then drops off after and is only 495kW.
Interesting that later on that page it says they will correct the curve for conditions! So if we are, say, at altitude there will be no loss of power and and turbo v. normally aspirated differences won’t show.
Must have a decent look at this doc at some point.
