My irrelevant 2 cents.

BEn

Piston moves in a circular motion are you joking?

You have a cylinder, and the piston only goes up and down, which means at somepoint it is neither moving up nor down, which is at the peak and bottom of its stroke, which is what I am assuming Al is talking about.

A crank moves in a circular motion......

Nice numbers! How did you get so much torque? It's like you have a 2.3L stroker.

it is the boost and the boost spike my friend...

As you can see the max value is very high but very soon it drops because of the turbo...

at 30psi spike (but with a bov leak) i saw around 80+ ft-lbs more than my regular 22psi...

But as Al said, this type of test is only safe in a controllable environment like the dyno and not the road.
