401HP on dyno run w/T-78 @ about 18psi I need some input here.....hmmm
those are the actual numbers and its part ignition breakup part running waaay too rich. honestly only had my car on the dyno three times and i was scared to tune it for fear of doing something wrong. i learned alot tuning on the street. its not the prettiest graph but it did it
Just keep in mind that dyno's can be told to lie. Instead of looking at everyone's dyno charts just hit the track and see what mph you get. To me that is more meaningfull than a dyno.

That graph actually looks A LOT smoother than the other one I saw. I agree with the others though - did you ever get it on another dyno or a good run down the track?

best et was 12.0 @ 118 mph blowing the trans and twisting the input shaft with my decent driving but nothing amazing and only a 1.70 60 FT... i learned alot from this car

Absolutely, though I think the shape of the power curve is useful to know. The dyno sheet posted goes to show why peak numbers mean very little as I doubt the average hp between the shift points there is much more than 350rw -I suspect this is why it trapped 118.

i never went past 7200rpm on the track....... had some weird misfire which i later fixed two days before the car was wrecked!
oh well life goes on, the car did make the power but if i ever used it who knows lol

Thats why there are to many variables to figuring it based on trap speed. Driver could suck (Vosko) 
, bad launch, traction problem, tires etc can all effect trap speed. Those wont change HP numbers.

isnt 118 a very low trap speed for the power you are claiming? I think it should be about 5mph more at least right?
why would you only get a 12. with a 1.7 6O time with 415 rwhp???

what kind of wheels to you have on the car? My car showed a 20-30 rwhp decrease when going from the stock 16x8's to the massive 19x10 (285 tire) rears- with no other change in the settup of the car, if anything it shoudl've shown higher numbers because it was a little cooler outside when i dyno'd with the 19's. Having to rotate all that weight apparently took some serious power.
BTW: I made 404 rwhp at about 16psi with the 19's and A/F numbers around 12 (not exactly conservative) with a mild streetport

Very Nice Piano!
I see your a/f is a bit leaner. Scott did'nt build my motor so he did'nt know what was done internally......so he kept it rich, at least that's what he told me.

I'm told that it is a large streetport. I've never seen the ports compared to other ports, but my tech said that my ports were bigger than Superman's which primarily accounts for my higher hp at lower boost...

someone tell me if i'm wrong...i don't claim to be an expert...

maztech on the other hand WOW. It doesnt get any better than a guy like Jeff Gladish. I also think highly of pettit engines if you ever are looking for solid work
