Really, I don't!.......................

If you did 530 hp on #5, and I did 542 on #6, then we are as close as we originally thought we might be!
Guess I missed that when I looked at original #'s.

But then why so different (31 hp) on #10?? Maybe an HO PMC thing?

Anyway...it's your 2x4. Stick it anywhere you want.

My best number at speedtek 478.17 hp.


FWIW.....on Bob Davies dyno last Feb. my truck made 466, smarty only on 9. Then at HPP in lewisville in April it made 467.

My first run on the Dynocom in Burleson......with MP-8 turned all the way down...my baseline run was 465. (VERY VERY CLOSE TO PREVIOUS RUNS!)

2nd run was 506.7 with MP-8 on 50 percent.

Didn't get to make a 3rd run......as it broke. (some said I made toooo much hp)

I was first at Speedtek to run when we moved the show up there. Baseline run with MP-8 off was 447.87. Best 478.17


SO was the Dynocom easy or Speedtek Stingy?? Personally..., I like the dynocom..

Bobs portable dyonjet 502, lewisville dynojet 504, Speedtek 460... hmmmm....

I'd like dynocom too and maybe that is where you are (likely), but for comparisons sake we all need to be tested on the same one... I'm sure you are 500+ and I'm sure I'm 620-630ish...

Kinda my thoughts, but I guess we wont know til the next one... did you see my dyno sheet for my #10? it was very weird... I really think it has to do with how we started our runs... really do...

Ok well in that case, call it 478 for me then. I really don't consider myself in the same league with you and RJ. I was just thrilled to see something above 500...

Hopefully we can get another dyno day going soon and get a complete day in for everybody on the same machine.

Not happening! "JUST SAY NO" is my motto.
It would take a second CTD in my garage before I start using drugs.... because a little bit is not enough....and a lot is to close to the edge... for me!
If CTD's were meant to use drugs...Old Man CumminGs would have put a NOS port on the intake!

But I have been kind of looking on AutoTrader.com for another, nice, low mileage 02.

ummmm CumminGs didn't tap your manifold for Methonal now did he?? and I'm pretty sure much care was taken to make sure water didn't end up inside the combustion chamber!

Yeah....OK.
I don't suppose you'd buy the argument that a little alcohol is medicinal... or only for cooling?
Actually that's how it started( cooling)...in my big single turbo days!

Just having some fun witcha! Actually a little envious!
