Default Didn't make 400hp

Well the goal was 400 at 14psi, I fell about 25hp short final numbers where 376hp and 251tq which still makes the car feel like a new toy. Oh and I'm not done yet, so it may see the fours yet.

You'll be there. It took mine 2 hours of dyno time to get to 427 then another 2 hours screwing around with the methanol to no avail. I hope I can find a guy that can tune methanol injection.

Just and observation, but why shut it down at 8750...it looks like you were still on the incline...I'd have taken it to 9....
Judging by the slope of the curve at that point, you might have gotten another 10-15 peak HP out of it....

There's plenty of dyno queens out there that can't even begin to put their power to the ground because of serious traction issues. Looks like you have more than enough power and the car is still running and that's what counts, not a number persay. Be careful. I've seen too many people get horsepower hungry and push the limit too far and blow the motor in their pursuit of more power from a turbo F20C. I wish you luck in longevity and reliability.
