Default STS dyno numbers

I'm heading to the dyno in 3 hours. Can't wait to see what its gonna put down on 10psi. The dyno numbers don't really matter to me as much as e.t's and trap speeds but its always fun to brag. Anybody have any good estimations on what it will put down. Its on a dynojet with straight methanol.

I'd like to see that dyno graph. And video if possible. Let's hear the sound of that turbo at full song.

Well,a little history on the car. When I just had my cam and ported heads along with the stall, the car put down 330 whp, but it ran 8.2 @ 88 mph and a 2.0 60' with street tires, along with 95* heat. Anyways, the other day we went to the dyno made a few pulls and the fuel pump pressure bottomed out to 20psi. The only runs we made we @ low boost and it made 380whp. All o you guys reading this and scratching your head, I was the same way after my initial dyno run with my cam only and ran the times I did and trap speed. I know what roughly 400whp eels like and even on low boost, it is WELL over 400. Only thing I can think of is my converter. Its a fuddle 3400. My tuner Jeremy Formato said he has never seen a fuddle make good dyno numbers but do very well at the track. I will be at the track in 2 weeks to get the real deal. But we never did make a high boost pull. Rest assure there are no boost leaks or any of the sort.

Do you have a stock fuel system? BIgger injectors, fuel pump and fuel rails are a must to make more power.

yes he has bigger injectors, i think they a 60#s and he had a wally 255lph fuel pump. i think he probley needs dual pumps for high boost. or at least get a hot wire kit for the wally as i beleive that was his prob on the dyno. not enough juice to the pump.

Yeah, with big stalled autos, the dyno numbers mean ****. It's all about track numbers with those things!
