IB3800 with 507 seconds at 30A seems fishy, anyone else seen this before?

Hello,

I was given a battery pack as a sample. It came from a matching company I will not name. The numbers seem really fishy to me, so I cycled a few to check them out. The labels on them are as follows:

The cells are IB3800 with the date code AACEU
507 seconds
1.216-1.223 Average Voltage
5.0A Charge
30A Discharge
13-15 IR
5000 runout
0.9 Cutoff

Should I be able to match these results with my Turbo 35 GFX and a cell holder?

I was able to get 446 seconds with an average voltage of 1.164 an an RIR of 18. It peaked at 1.522 V and was 129.9 degrees.

I am thinking these cells have labels intended for a 4200, but can't confirm that yet. My main question is should I be able to repeat the numbers or close to if I am using the same charge/discharge rates?
