MINI Connected Infotainment System (Sport Instruments)

Anyone know if the HP and torque numbers in the Sport Instruments is accurate?
With that question anyone having experienced owning a vehicle that exceeded the build quality that the majority of owners have? Does that make sense? In other words, have you ever owned a vehicle where the quality or performance was positively above the norm of the general production?

They look to be estimated/ or very close based off the engine ECU. They do max out very quickly and they seem to be a little behind, couple seconds compared to a P3 Car gauge we had installed. Temp gauge is accurate.

I purchased my '14 All4 new with 25 miles off the lot. I drive mostly highway miles but most of this is stop and go at the end of the day.
I've never seen daily driving with a fuel economy over 24.5. I have taken a leisurely drive and seen 30mpg.
My CMS is stock under the hood. As incredulous as this sounds I've seen 202hp in a short sprint. I was a bit surprised but now I'm beginning to wonder if maybe I've lucked onto a special build (I've had one other vehicle that went 400k miles without a rebuild when I sold it out of boredom) and perhaps this accounts for the fuel economy?
I don't have a GO cam so I'm looking to verify what I saw. Any ideas?
