Just want to make sure this data is accurate.

Yep, I try to zero it out every other time I data log. It's +/- 0.2 psi off at most. But it would be reading dangerously low if it were still calibrated for sea level... which would be bad.

So, yes, it's a true 30 psi all the way across at 4500 ft this compressor kicks ***!

I'm glad I haven't upgraded the turbo yet. I might pick this one up.

Nice results looking forward to see more results.

I bet you can get the turbo to spool even quicker with some special sauce MIVEC tuning...

Yeah gst's dyno is pretty stout I believe. 452 on that is beastly.

^Definitely. 452 is a good deal of power on GST's Mustang. 230ish +whp over stock is nothing to scoff at.

No he didn't.

Red's make about 430-460 on our dyno @ 30psi on good fuel, Evo 9. On pump, 35Xwhp. Which is about what reds make on the 10 on our dyno, on pump.

AMS, but it reads pretty low as well compared to others. I'm not sure how comparable it would be to GST's though.

The 9 turbos are physically larger so you might be out of luck unless you step up to a T3.

I've started looking into double pumps for E85 and I'm not too happy about the options--everything affordable requires sending in your pump housing and being without a car until it is returned. Not attractive for those of us that only have one car.

Heh, last I checked the AMS DynoJet reads pretty average at around 20% losses plus or minus a few percent. I think GST's is closer to the heartbreaker side of the spectrum like Buschur's or STM's Mustang Dyno at 30% losses but not sure how close.

Comparing an Evo 9 on an FP Red on another Dyno with unknown Evo X baselines is going to be impossible to compare directly, way too many variables.

^That's what I thought but I didn't want to start an argument. I don't know of any DynoJet that reads notoriously low.

In all honesty the AMS dynojet seems to read the most truthful and inline of dynojets. God I hate dyno arguments. Why did I post this.

And there's usually no need...if you live in a decent size city then your tuner will have seen one of everything on the dyno that you use.
