 I'm impress, especially with 446 C.I. What brand intercooler are you using? Prying minds want to know 
it is a blowershop intercooler and believe me the water was moving slow from that garden hose to it.

First, congrats on the successful dyno session. These #'s are crazy high for that combination of parts at that boost level thru a roots blower IMO. You're validating a number that 'doesn't matter' to you by accepting specific compliments about HP without qualifying it. What parts did you change from the last combination that made near 800 HP? Where were you measuring the boost level? I see 30+HP per # of boost. This huge HP again serves as an advertisement of sorts and to quantify it IMO you should post what HP you made when your car last ran. Once again we'll, I'm not the only naysayer here, let your MPH speak for the power your making. Is that such a crazy concept?

I'll keep my dyno thoughts to myself... But you know what? Finding the plug water leak on the dyno was worth the time spent, no matter what the HP on the sheet reads. That alone was worth putting it on the dyno. Can you imagine finding the leak, AFTER you put it in the car?!  In the end it doesn't matter what the dyno says. As long as you're happy with how the car ET's for the money you spent, that's all that counts.

Is that not nice? Honey.
My tuning advise; read your sparkplugs (especially on dyno, 'cause it's easier) they are the windows to the soul of the engine. I'd give you a converter 'K' factor but, those #'s posted are unusually high, LOL. Come on brother, lighten-up.

Metal, glad your happy You among many others here have cool projects. Hardcore, I couldn't agree more with what your saying and most don't want to rain on a parade. Even if you are calling a spade a spade going by past numbers. The MPH will tell the tale They dyno is just a tool and should be used just as that. Let's all wait for the latest joshking440/koffel dyno numbers

I am again seeing the some trash talking about a particular shops Dyno numbers. It is obvious that the numbers posted from the Dyno are not to this groups liking, so enlighten me before I get there on what settings should be made to accomodate you group? Is there a correction factor? What should it be, enquiring minds want to know.
well last pulls for me were 1,000hp and the track shows under 800 this time i got 1152 and i would guess the same % for this. it is what it is.that is why we post them so we understand.

There is no trash talk going on from my end. Let me put it this way...this Kilpatrick(sp) guy built your engine correct? What if you took your motor to a different dyno facility and put up significantly lower HP #'s at comparible boost levels than MetalStorm's motor? But you're using superior parts. Do you blame the builder? I have to go...be back in a while to better clarify.
