I'm starting to think this isn't a fair fight. You know, with technology changing so drastically from year to year. Maybe a handicap system for every month that goes by between dyno runs. :lol:

I had to go back and re-read the entire thread to see if I missed something! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

He only needs to make 702hp to make 11 of you happy. I think my TP will prove 12 of you right with better avg numbers because that is what it was built to do, be drivable.:cool: I am building a PT car.

DG should I post my dyno graphs again? You have to all the way back to Nov posts to find them. I wouldn't want to add the extra work to you since it seems you are having a hard time getting things done.:rofl:
