Where is the pressure being measured?

Very strange if this is a graph of your actual Manifold Pressure.  Is it?  I can't think of any scenario where the manifold pressure would remain almost constant from 1000 to 5500 rpm unless the prop presented almost no load to the engine.   Even assuming that, I can't see why the MAP should be higher with the blower on.
