I would really like to see a legitimate 3rd party dyno of one of the cars. This is not to say they are not fast, powerful monsters, just that big claims with really nothing more than what has come to light to be a shady shop's dyno to back it up.

Seriously not trying to come off as a hater, just that some of the claims being made seem to go against logic to some degree.

Yup, we gave up on trying to simulate DJ numbers. We run no additional correction, other than standard atmospheric correction (which every dyno uses). Our NA baseline cars usually pull about 210-215whp on our dyno, which is low, in comparison to a DJ. With our dyno charts, I can gaurantee you will have a higher number on a dynojet, and thats it!
