I would think you would be able to calculate a theoretical curve but I have not seen one. The math should not be that hard to come up with. As for detonation, to calculate its effects I would think would be next to impossible. Where did it start, when did it start, chamber design and flame front path, yadda, yadda, yadda. Of course if you had some poor sole who actually completed a dyno pull with detonating engine and then pulled again with no other changes except perhaps fuel of sufficient octane then you might have it.

Good Luck!
