What do you consider normal?
A stock HR assuming a 15% drivetrain loss would make about 260whp. Picking up 30whp, on an HR, with bolt-ons and a tune is not an alarming figure. My wife's HR picked up 17whp just from upgrading her to the JWT dual-intake system. Nothing else. The HR responds well to bolt-ons, the non-HR - not so much.

It just seems to me that there are quite a few variations on dyno results on the HR after mods....Given location and weather have a part to play...but still...thats just my .02

regardless of the mods, we can see that the base power output from the graph was 290whp/267.17rwtq. This numbers are about 10%(~25-30whp) higher than most HR numbers. This is pretty high IMO.
Anyways, who cares about power otput from one dyno to another. They'll never be the same since Dyno's are used to tune cars, not to measure power output.
any before and after dyno sheets for the HR?

^ maybe my car responded well to the mods? Cause exhaust "claims" 10-15hp or something and test pipes "claim" like 12hp so maybe that is the case?
Regardless I don't care..I like the way my car feels and it doesn't hook for **** in 1st and part of 2nd which is kind of fun =)

Rob did my 350Z. I got 404 when mine was done. (S/C and cams). Rob's shop is the best for any and all needs when it comes to Z'S AND G'S. You can't go wrong. Rob does all the mods on my Z which I won't list here, but he's the expert.

But anyway, LMFAO @ this from the zcar blog

Bummer I know.
all I know is that they sell a lot of overpriced parts that are worth chit. Search and you'll find lots of negative input.

The graphs they provide are typically in SAE. Here are a few other HRs - all were in SAE:

Why are you such a naysayer? Again - see link.
And here is the dyno since you clearly didn't click the links I posted:
