Message the dyno pack, that I don't know what to believe. I was down at JWT over the weekend and the tuner of my car (Clark, Jim's partner, tuning my 280ZXT) said it took him some time to really be able to utilize the dyno correctly. You can hold the axle speed at any given point, to fine tune the engine, and get some funky numbers. I don't have near enough expertise or technical understanding to explain why they can vary as much as they do from reading to reading and compared to a Dynojet. For instance, he said I "pinned" the maximum torque of the dyno and turned it off (It has some fail safe mechanism programed into it), but the HP numbers weren't all that impressive. Yet when we took it for a little spin, it felt like (according to my co-pilot) we needed to ask for clearance for take off from the local airstrip. Don't get too hung up on the dyno numbers, and think of it as a tuning tool. Wait to see how it feels and performs. Feel free to get ahold of me if you want to discuss it further. Unless there is some major glitch in some unknown aspect of your set up, you are going to be very happy with the way it performs....you can hold me to that. Take care, Mark
