we post all of our numbers sae corrected typically. It helps keep things consistent between the seasons. uncorrected numbers are only accurate for that day the car is ran on the dyno. For instance this car the way it sits in January here would probably read over 1200 HP uncorrected....but who races in January in chicago LOL

wow, those are impressive numbers for sure, and with room to push more boost still... 
congrats! it amazing... dust off the car, tweak it a little, and set records without breaking a sweat.

this is why 2 friends of mine have taken their evo's to you... nothing but the best. both have ams setups and tuning... the results speak for themselves on and off the track. this is why people come back to you when they decide to take it up a notch. great work!

what does it do with out correction factors?? can you share the raw data? I want to know what hp it actually made at that time, not what it "might make" if the weather was better...
Never-the-less,,, that is FRICKING AMAING!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how long until we see some new track times from this beast?? how much did it make the last time it was on the rollers? Might this be good enough for an extra tenth or so and a few extra mph? how far away are 180mph trap speeds??

This is Illinois you're talking about, so it could very well be the numbers are higher uncorrected. The motor is corrected for something like 60*F, 0% humidity, and 29 InHg. Looks like the weather today is 73*(which doesn't really represent what the air temp was at the intake, 50%, and 29.79 InHg. So the motor really made slightly less. Around 1277hp*SEE EDIT*.
You don't need to concern yourself with uncorrected numbers. The SAE(which is made up of people smarter than you can imagine, look up Gordon Blair) has come up with a correction formula that can take a motor from Maine and compare it directly to one in Death Valley or anywhere else in the world. Plus from a tuning standpoint, lets say you want to try out a new cam, using uncorrected numbers. Lets say it's on the AMS drag car. You make one pull and holy crap 1277 hp! Lets put on the new cam and see how she does. Well the AMS guys are so busy bragging to all the hot ladies about their new numbers that it heats up by 5 degrees outside. The new cam goes in and the next pull they've lost about 6 HP!!! In reality they gained 4. Even worse you could lose horsepower from pull to pull just from the engine putting heat into the room.
EDIT: Sorry my calcs were off I was using 1300 for my base not 1130, the uncorrected numbers should be more like 1110. :-)
