Just out of curiosity, why is there a noticeable dip in power @ ~4700rpms?

How high did you take the rpms? It looks like you stopped at 6500. I used to shift mine at 8000 and never had a problem. The power will start dropping off after that as the turbos run out of breath. Good dyno nonetheless for a motor rated 280hp at the flywheel.

I didn't notice any at all. If you notice, the dip only occurred on the 2nd and 3rd runs at which I tried upping the boost. I started to run into an issue with the diverter valve at that point (13psi) due to a loose secondary vacuum line. I'm still debugging the issue but may just end up going with a BOV.

The rev limiter on the ECU dumps at 6500rpms as I was in 4th gear on the dyno. I'm not sure what I rev to in 1st/2nd gear but I'm pretty sure I rev higher. I'll check it out next time. I can't even remember.

I used to rev my Prelude H22 to 8k even though redline was 7.5k. I knew where the rev limiter kicked in exactly!
