i guess people dont understand that there are different settings on dynos that read different ways dynojet setting and then you can have the info put in by sensors that are at the dyno that tell it air press and hum. the altt. and all that factors that why people have dynojets they have the same setting so ppl from (canada can compair with someone else in texas)

does anyone know what im talking about that has a dyno plz

Is that just the oil or the oil plus a RSX oil filter?

wait a minute.... so you got 215 on a stock z, added mods, went through a few oil changes, gained 15hp, and you're claiming it's the OIL that caused the gain and not the MODS?

or... correct me if i'm wrong, please?

15hp is quite a large difference but if you changed viscosities its not out of the question.

Yeah he dynoed stock at 215. Weak ****.
Changed his oil. Dynoed at 230.

Now that you are all caught up we anxiously await you to weigh in with your opinion on the matter.
