I am kinda bumbed I couldent get a Torque reading because unlike the rest of you I don't run on spark plugs. So I went for just a HP run and it was only like half of what I expected 290 HP. I don't know if he let off when the duct blew apart or somthing else happend, but his shop was subjected to quite a bit of black smoke. All in all it was a great time Greg is a very cool guy shop was clean and frendly. See ya next time.

Haha, I saw that. I got on tape the tail end of the duct getting blown out. It kind of sounded like he let off a little early, but what do diesels rev to? They make a shitton more torque than hp from what I understand...

That's kind of strange that they couldn't get a tq reading though, that's what the dyno measures (and hp calc'd from tq). Do you mean you couldn't get an RPM reading? At least they could have recorded the tq/hp vs. time.

Anyone else scan their dyno sheets in? I managed to grab the dynojet runfiles so I could make the plots myself, annotate them, etc... here's mine. Total oddball wankel, I'm not making 400+ whp like some of you maniacs, but it's still fun :) I really need to clean up my fuel map, it's too rich and erratic. Lost some boost up top too and timing is backed off a couple * up top... was hoping to hit 260-270 tq/310-320 whp. Man I'm full of excuses :)
