Alrighty boys and girls,
Here is my dyno from the tune day. Steve did a really great job on my car. Hook-ups import tek was an awesome shop for the dyno. If anybody is looking for a dyno shop in So Cal, these are the guys to call.
It is kind of hard to see the torque curve but it is there. I ended up putting down 399.11RWHP, and 331.27 Foot Pound of Torque.

Could you guys please give a quick summary of car and mods when posting numbers? Jesuscookies, it looks like you're running twins with that lean spot in the middle there? Your AFR's look to be in nearing 12 in the higher RPMs...is that a bit aggressive?
Great looking curve nevertheless!

So THAT's what a 400 hp Dyno Pull looks like 
Mine 'll get there hopefully today... My previous "tune" put me @ 148rwhp at 10 Psi, with a GT35/40
and to boot I was burning at the rate of 115 mi / 18 Gal Fillup.... (2 Gal Always remain in my tank)
I use the term very loosely, Slow Gas Strainer / Collander is a better description of what it used to be.
Feels handles MUCH better now, Go Steve !!!

Street ported single turbo. KKK 27 single Turbo, 850's and 1680's for injectors, Racing beat dual tip, and a magnaflow resonated midpipe. Twinpower ignition. 10.5's all around, and a aquamist 2s waterinjection system.
The AFR's are off on the dyno. It is actually running in the low 11's all the way across.
nice numbers guys. David... the torque looks really good. Max- nice numbers also. Carl- that sucks about your turbo. Hopefully just a bad unit.
I'm curious what sirJury (20B turbo) puts down and Dave (RX-Heven 13BT vert) once they get their tuning dialed in.
Keep us posted.

Wow what a weekend.
Special thanks to chris at hook-ups import tek in Upland. Very cool dyno shop. I will be down there again for dyno pulls in the very near future, I am sure.

Thanks also to Kevin at www.autolinkmotorworks.com . Another stand up shop, and another stand up owner.
Thanks to Steve Kan for coming down to So. Cal, and putting up with us.
And thanks Roman for all the help. I never would have been able to do all this with out your help.
Okay, lets do it again next week.
