    Hey, thanks to public education and the overall decline of math performance, most would think my 8th is far more impressive, lol.

    Still very impressive. I'd love to have that kind of power under the pedal.

    Thanks! Yea to be honest even at the power level it's at now its a handful. I'm not even a decent enough driver to trust myself with the higher boost level on a road course as is. I can't even imagine what the GN feels like on the street. I asked that question yesterday and I think Jim's response was something like "it feels like a telephone pole"

    You mean you saw my 240 right? The GN hasn't been out on the streets just yet.

    Got my dyno graph scanned in, here are the overlays. The lower pass was 501whp/375wtq and was made at 17psi. The upper pass was 564whp/441wtq. It was a 24psi spike, however because the dyno load was a little lower than on the street the boost dropped to around 22 by the end of the pass. You can see it in the torque curve a bit. I didn't have my laptop there to make any adjustments but it probably would have made a little more power on the top (likely another 10-20whp and maybe a *touch* more torque). The car is on e85:


    I think Jim left the dyno printouts at WBD yesterday so unfortunately I couldn't scan those in.

    And yes I gotta extend a thanks to Brad for everything yesterday. He went above and beyond in terms of helping us get on the dyno as needed, borrowing tools, getting stuff strapped up and down, playing with the dyno as needed. Needless to say I was very impressed and wouldn't hesitate at all to use him next time I need some dyno time. Also had some very nice cars in the shop everytime I was there

    Nice peak numbers murray!!! Kind of shocks me to see my car have alot more torque then yours though being the displacement advantage... and Im also kind of suprised on how late the boost comes in(start making power), what rpm did you start the runs??
