Default Funky Dyno Graph, please take a look

This is my first honda car, and I put it on the dyno to have a baseline dyno for a nice before and after dyno sheet for when I put my turbo on. But when I turned smoothing off, I was expecting the graph to get a little spikey, but this is WEIRD. Is this common for GSRs?

Nothing to do with the car and everything to do with the software/input.

Well, it's weird that it's only in the higher RPMs around VTec

Probably ignition related.

Looks like ignition noise got into the dyno recorder. Try kicking on smoothing a notch or two. That's what it's there for sometimes

try to view the dyno graph versus speed instead of rpm

Well, I'll be putting on a new cap, rotor, plugs and wires before the turbo goes on, so hopefully if it's ignition related it shouldn't give me issues in the future.

Turning it to smoothing will only hide the problem, I want to know why it's doing that.
