On our "low boost" 25 or so lb's pull that it didn't spin (first "full" pull) it looks like it made about 450ft lbs (had a spike that said it was at 540ish) and 577whp. Horsepower stayed identical between 6800 and 8200 (within 5hp).
Spinning was the name of the game on our dyno. we really need slicks.(for the dyno AND for the track) I think the car has 725-740whp in it at its current boost level. It sure as hell should be making that.

And that is why the car ran like poo under load up here.

Slicks should be coming!

I guarantee you were NOT spinning tires, now the clutch/power of the motor, thats another story..but there was NO rubber left on the dyno. I am afraid to come to your place without MASSIVE slicks to try to hook.
With the power spread out between 4 axles versus 2, you will not have traction issues up here for quite some time.
On a side note:
Was that E-85 car running 100%?
If so, its looking like there is an 18% power difference between the 2 places. Obviously this is a 2wd dsm to a awd dsm from dynojet to dyno dynamics. That is just number crunching the other car that was run here, as kyle's was obviously having a tuning/load/clutch? issue(s).
I'd like to run a few more fwd dsm to awd dsm tests to make a more concrete comparison estimate.
Back on topic:
That being said that car is SIIIICK. The sound, the setup, you guys should be rocking the track hard once you get it all figured out.
