Unfortunately, that site is notoriously biased against Axis aircraft.
It also ignores a lot of evidence that has been unearthed and known long ago. Basically, it pushes forward the agenda of the site's author who wishes to show that the most famous Allied fighter types were almost infinitively superior to their Axis counterparts. This is simply achieved there
by comparing the worst examples of Axis fighters at some lower power output against the best examples on the Allied side.
For example, the '109K-4' figures on that graphs are taken from a 109K-6 curve, and they don't show either the 1.98ata boost rate that appears to have been introduced in March 1945 for two-two Gruppes of JG 27 and 53 on the western front. The only /AS engined fighter figures shown are those equipped with gondolas, despite flight tested results for clean aircraft are available. The G-10 subtype is conviniently ignored, despite some 2500 being produced etc. The comparisons with 109E and 109G are similiarly flawed. Very generous conclusions are being arrived for the Allied planes, often based on pure guesswork and/or wishful thinkning, while direct evidence on the Axis side is simply ignored, or dismissed, if it's positive to the picture.
I am a bit amazed you've posted this, the site and it's author has a fairly controversial reputation regarding objectivity, to put it mildly. IMHO read the original reports 'as is', and draw your own conclusions and safely ignore stuff that's merely about a 21st century re-enactment of 1940s propaganda pamphlets.
