Dyno Number?

Check out the pegged boost gauge.  That means lots of power, right?  Well, in my case, no.  Despite having more fuel, higher EGTs (1500 vs 1200) and more boost (36psi vs 54psi) the truck actually made LESS power.  A weak 332rwhp on nitrous.  What gives?

 


 Well we have way too much drive pressure, our timing is still stock, our turbo is way out of its range, and our downpipe is still a 3-inch.  All of that we hope is holding us back.  It's back to the drawing board and the dyno after a wastegate install and timing bump, too see if we can find that power we've been missing.
