Message	The altitude correction factor that's built into dynojets is only accurate for naturally aspirated cars. When the correction factor is applied to forced induction vehicles, the corrected HP figure is skewed. This link should help, I wrote it a while back: [ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1105380 ] Please take the time to read my post and understand the principles at work. It amazes me how many people call themselves "car enthusiasts" but completely ignore- or more sadly- don't even believe in the math behind automotive performance. It saddens me when I go out of my way to do my research, and labor to understand how things work, only to be met with resistance or disbelief by those who don't care to understand how things work.
