i gonna have to agree with dieso here alot of shops may seem to put out "high" dyno numbers but when it gets to the track the times arnt there and the lower dyno cars are running fatser which is where it is more important anyway .
btw his car does pull like a mother taken down a few h/c cars no problem

if you dont mind, post up the difference in your stock rear and the 9" with 4.56's. i just had mine tuned and it put down.426/375 through my 12boltw/4.56's. everyone is complaing about the torque, but i know for a fact these gears with this posi are eating alot of it. i would like to see what the 9" does to it.
thanks.

Dyno's from different areas are NOT the same. I have seen my buddies h/c car run faster than people with 20 rwhp more. Dyno's from area to area are different. I like to gauge the power difference in different parts of the country by track results. For example, an automatic car in your area with the same setup as a automatic car in my area. Compare their track times, both may have the same exact car, run the same exact number @ the track but have dyno numbers anywhere from 10-30 rwhp off.

Everyone compares the dyno #'s but doesnt pay mind to the track results. My dyno I feel is conservative, there is no fluff. I have seen 360 rwhp cars run 12.00's with a not so quick shifter and a stock clutch.
I agree. I only put down 304rwhp the last time I dynoed and I run an 12.5. I have beaten guys with 375 to 385rwhp. And I loved every minute of it.
