I think 50 is on the high side too but I wouldn't doubt the true number is closer to that than 28. I think there's alot of variables with this car on the dyno. The oil temp. issue makes it hard to get repeatable numbers, some people's cars seem to take longer to learn the mods than others (ecu reset vs. learn), and the intakes are problematic to measure results since dynos won't be able to simulate the amount of air when at speed. Either way if there's a noticeable enough difference in how the car pulls that's better than any dyno result. I remember Z eliminator being disappointed with his dyno results and him later posting that he had to be making well over what the dyno told him, which is hard to deny since he ran a 12.8 at 110 with poor traction. Granted he has the better gearing also.
