The temperature difference you note is unimportant. The DynoDynamics takes into account temp and pressure when making hp calculations. The DynoDynamics spits out temp and pressure corrected numbers. This was the same dyno or was the previous dyno @ CP Racing?

1) Aftermarket wheels/tires vs. the 17 inch skiny stockers used on the prior tuning session
2) I reviewed the logs, and the inlet probe was touching a hotter surface, and added about 4-5% more to his previous number.
All and all, Eagle's engine probably made the same power with the UTEC and the FCON....but the driving results and experience is much better now.

I am sure Eagle can better describe his first test drive the FCON...even though the engine was making the same peak power as the UTEC.

I did trap 119 once on the UTEC after that the best trap I saw was 116. With the FCON I have seen 121 at 50degrees once, and have been averaging around 118 to 119 in 66 to 72 degrees.
Were you the silver Z on the dyno late friday night? If so I was one of the two guys that showed up late that night before the efi 101 deal. What track do you go to maybe you can do a pass or two on my drag radials i'm in Greenville.

Also, what is the stickiest tire you can get away with on the street? I don't mean what will pass inspection or a look see from a cop, but what tire is ok to drive on the highway, and also net low low 60' times?
@Eagle - Congrats and seriously amazing numbers!

Another thing to check is make sure the barometer readings were consistant, we experienced some weird stuff with a low pressure barometer reading..The temp corrections should hover in the area of .9's and 1.1's during extreme variances in ambient tempuratures...So make sure you look at the Atmoshperic correction values on the DD from the previous #'s to the last #'s..We found that a dead battery in the weather station would make a 70whp difference
