Nope this is a different shop as the other place moved and can only handle 900 lb/ft trq and this one can handle close to 2000 lb/ft trq. Or something like that

Dyno Jets really like twins and NOS so guys with those will be able to make some high numbers as well.

So a dynojet will read higher than a Mustang... Anyone figure out what one is more accurate by figuring out hp by 1/4 mile times? I guess I am just a stickler for accurate results..........

They are both accurate, just different in the way that they interperet the results,, so a dynojet will give a higher number than a mustang (especially with a diesel truck due to the large ammounts of torque that we put out) Dynojets are a inertia dyno, as where a mustang dyno is a load based dyno. On trucks under 500 hp I dont think you will see a big ammount of difference, but 600 and more you can get some wild numbers... especially if you know how to trick the dyno... guys that know what they are doing can spike the dyno with a late shot of nitrous, I have heard of 200 hp gains with spiking a dynojet

Personally I would like to see what my truck will do on a dynojet, just to see,, I might try and see if I can get on sub performance's dyno the same weekend and try to compare,,, not sure if I will be able to manage that or not, but I will try.....

I hope to give you a bit of a run Aaron lol... I think that I am short one turbo though

Today I started putting in my snow water meth kit. So far I am not impressed at all. The worst instructions I have ever seen and some missing parts, little nubs for wires etc........ Thought I would do the "plumbing" part of it. No fitting for the windshield washer fluid. Thought I would do the wiring. No wires. It would not be bad.... but like I said above the directions and drawings are lame. They gave me 2 625 nozzles. Not even sure if I am supposed to use one or two with their lame instructions. Now that I went to town and spent a couple hours chasing parts and another $50 bucks I can finish up the install tommorow I think. I hope they have improved some in recent years! I was looking @ the receipt and my wife bought it for me for christmas of 2004!

Sorry about being on the chip about this, but it makes me mad!
