    Default Went to dyno, now I have more work to do

    Well I came back from the dyno and I am not too happy. I had some issues that I wasn't hoping to have. 1. Had a misfire on cylinder #4 2. I didnt have my boost referenced regulator hooked up 3. I was blowing through the converter as soon as I made boost 4. Developed an exhaust leak while on the dyno. So I am happy and sad at the same time. I only made 560whp on 8lbs with those issues. So its back to the drawing board so I can get everything ironed out before the season starts.

    We had same issue with not having converter loaded and it did the same thing. Sounded the same as Urs too. Don't get caught on dyno numbers, take it to the track and see what it does

    Yea, I am not really worried about the numbers. But a nice dyno sheet is always good to have. If I can get a 1.3x 60ft, then I can fix the rest.

    Only 480. I am working on getting the converter sorted out. At the 560whp I was only doing 114mph. LOL
