469AWHP on STOCK TURBO!

I am guessing your dyno run was also in 3rd or 4th gear showing the proper whp. I also highly doubt I'm making more whp than you, so 310-315 sounds about right for me, too. Oh, why does your sig say 400+ hp/tq? Are those adjusted crank values based on a 25% drivetrain loss?
As for Miguel, you say you are not making less than he is, but you said yourself that he got 357whp. How does that measure up? I still believe his 307whp in 3rd gear is much more accurate.

? The target is always moving.It says whp doesn't it?
I don't know where I said anything about someone having 357whp. You'll have to show me. I don't typically talk about other people's cars.

I had to assume you had 313whp on that run, because 313whp is the proper horsepower for that mph. You know I ran right at 111, but couldn't get over it due to my rev limiter and that I was bouncing off the limiter 4-5 times before hitting the traps. That would indicate I can hit 111 at least, and _maybe_ close to 112. That's still only ~320whp, so it would be reasonable to assume that you were in the same range when you did your last run, right? It would make no sense for you to run 12.26@111.6 with anything more than 320whp. Even if you were gear limited in 4th, your 1/8th-mile ET/MPH were no faster than mine either, so it's not like you were making more power, especially considering we appear to drive with just about the same skill.

You're right, it was Joe (sorry). So, if you believe your dyno numbers and Joe's dyno numbers, then you have to believe that Miguel's numbers. 357whp is way, WAY more than he is capable of with those mods on 93oct on a vanilla flash with 10.7 AFRs. You and I both know this to be true...
At the least, we have all rolled the same dyno so there is a perspective. 90% of the rest of the well known Evo community spins a DJ so this should be an equal comparison. The "Chris" AMS Evo just spun this dyno a week or so prior so this is a safe benchmark. 668 w/ a 50 shot is on par with what it put down elsewhere if you deduct the nO2.

Warrtalon u have to understand that 4th gears makes more boost and holds it longer, in 3rd i was boosting like 19psi and 4th it was spiking to like 23 and holding about 20.5 to 21 towards redline. Yes the car has alot more room for improvement! Ask Boosted joe, he seen me race 109-110 cars a few times! Warrtalon also 5 speed with trap higher than a 6 speed like scott said bc of gear ratios! I will post dyno sheet when i get a chance!

And that would mean you were putting down no more than 320-325whp on your best run. Lastly, that would mean Miguel could run at least 115mph in the 1/4...I keep going back to this without getting any feedback.

No warrtalon, you have more than the 325 range on a DJ type reading.

There is a mph theory on MR gearing that I have already mentioned. 5th gear is fast as hell, but you are only in it for like 80 feet, hardly long enough for HP to shine.

Anyhow let's get this thread back on topic...
