Im looking for this data

BF-109E-3 with DB-601A (1100PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.3 ata

BF-109E-4 with DB-601Aa (1175PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.4 ata

BF-109F-2 with DB-601N (1175PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.4 ata

BF-109F-4 with DB-601E (1350PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.4 ata

BF-109G-2 with DB-605A (1475PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.4 ata

BF-109G-6 with DB-605AM (1800PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.7 ata

BF-109G-10 with DB-605DB (1850PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.8 ata

BF-109K-4 with DB-605DC (2000PS)
Time to 5000-6000m with WEP, 1.98 ata

:::::


In a game they have these values and i find them hard to believe...
BF-109F-4 (2900kg) in that game has 5:11 to 6000m (1350PS) [19.29m/s avg to 6000m]
BF-109G-2 (3024kg) in that game has 5:10 to 6000m (1475PS) [19.35m/s avg to 6000m]
BF-109G-6 (3257kg) in that game has 4:45 to 6000m (1800PS) [21.05m/s avg to 6000m]
BF-109G-10 (3258kg) in that game has 4:50 to 6000m (1850PS) [20.69m/s avg to 6000m]
BF-109K-4 (3377kg) in that game has 4:42 to 6000m (2000PS) [21.28m/s avg to 6000m]

As you can imagine... im very skeptical a BF-109F-4 climb rate that good, not too different from K-4 despite the huge engine power difference between them
BF-109F-4 (2.15kg per 1 PS)
BF-109K-4 (1.69kg per 1 PS)
27% power to weight ratio advnatage for the K-4

Edit:
So far Grok 3 states that
BF-109F-1 at 2800kg could climb to 6000m in 5:50 at 1.3 ata regime
BF-109F-4 at 2890kg could climb to 6000m in 5:30-5:40 at 1,42 ata regime
BF-109G-2 at 3100kg could climb to 6000m in 5:32 at 1.42 ata regime
BF-109G-14 at 3200kg could climb to 6000m in 5:10 at 1.7ata regime
BF-109G-10 at 3200kg could climb to 6000m in 4:50 at 1.81 ata regime
BF-109K-4 at 3377kg could climb to 6000m in in 4:40 at 1,98 ata regime

I'm wondering which game. I've been involved with the multi-player flight sims since Air Warrior days. Some changes were made 8 years ago to my long time game by a person who would listen at first to suggestions of using this data and not that, but as usually happens they decided they were the experts and didn't need to listen to anyone. What I've noticed that is normal for games as it seems they all use max HP for climbing, but most real aircraft would never climb at emergency power. They'd over-heat quickly.

Here's all the different data I've collected for over 25 years on the 109. The link is to my GD 109 folder.
