that when mounted on a test stand, the exhaust components may not have much air flowing over them to cool them off. At highway speed, there's a lot of air moving under the hood of your car.
Depending on conditions, there can be an awful lot of BTU's going out the exhaust. When I was in high school, a buddy and I were restoring a Ford model T. That engine was so inefficient (20 hp out of ~3 liters) that if the timing was retarded a bit (adjustable via a lever on the steering column), the exhaust manifold would glow a dull red at idle!
