Is this on a dynjet or a dyno dynamics dyno? Big difference between the Aussie calibration dyno dynamics and the regular american dyno. 980 on a dyno dynamic = ~ 1150 on a dyno jet.

Nice number regardless. And yes, there are cars making that much or more power, such as mine.


Ok, I really don't even make half that amount of power.

illl be a squirrel, Harlan and Turley should both be around 1200RWHP, so the assuies have a couple hundered horses to catch up to, but a 980rwhp car is nothing to sneeze at either.

These figures were on a DD with new shootout mode which some cars were reading up to 100HP lower then average and seeing as dynojets would be 200HP more then a normal DD and this was around 100HP lower on the Hi Po cars, then these cars would be pumping out around 11-1200HP on a dynojet, not bad for 1.0 bar boost.

No clue... Maybe 9.50s @150mph Its a 6spd car. I may need a new gear. Thats what Im shooting for when I get it back. Its going to take a little while to dial it in and tune my driving skills.
