went to the last page, calculated some percentages based on facts not really in evidence and came up with some numbers. I dunno. Many variables. What's the barometer reading today?
Assume at least 10% drive train loss, give or take. More, with older slush boxes. Modern ones aren't so bad.

I'm guessing I'm around 450ish crank HP, maybe a little less. So I'm guessing 395ish.

Barometer shouldn't matter, it's taken into account. Also, this dyno is brand new. So new in fact, that there are only two places that have it: Dynojet themselves, and this shop.
