Other possible factors are maybe my quaife lsd has less drag than a stock one, but I have no idea on that one, and also maybe because my race wheels and tires at the time were a good bit lighter and smaller diameter than street wheels and tires could also help. I think when I actually had a set of street tires, the car dyno'd 6hp lower
Hmmm all interesting. Just trying to see where there is a 20hp jump is all. Curiosity for future mods is why I'm questioning it. Hope none is taken in the wrong way.

LSD may have some factor in it but I'm with you in being unsure on that as well.

I'm just running the stock sport wheels and pilot super sport tires obviously not as light. Not sure if that would make any significant difference or not.
