If you have it on your computer already. Just go to imageshack.us and upload the pic there. It will give you the codes to show them on a forum.

I would love to see ONE legitimate 3rd party dyno from one of the big 'claimed' HP cars SP put out. My guess is they would be legitimately in the upper 500s

That 911 had close to 1000whp and way better gearing...so his loss was about right...

I personally don't care about racing or whatever as that can more than come down to a driver's race.

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.

Awesome - thanks

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.

at those power levels, 600rwhp = 700rwhp = 1000rwhp in 1/4 times... It's just a number bro. Don't let it excite you or get you down. It's the "kill list" at the end of the day that matters. Kill any prius' lately?

Since Ted isn't at the shop anymore, if his guys would agree to it - I'd take my car there on Friday and do a few pulls. I have 600RWHP numbers from ZCG's dyno. It's the opposite of what you guys are looking to do, but it'd give an idea of dyno:dyno, and I could do it tomorrow.

From the other SP-related thread, it looks like he is not there as often. IDK myself, I don't go there. ;-)

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!
