MD/VA Spring Dyno Day and Meet '11
reads about 12% lower than the dynojet we used at ACA.
here's how he did against his prior setup on Nov 13th 2010 at 10psi:

all we need to do is get his EBC working and he's lost nothing over 4K.

After reviewing logs there were a few things that made me miss my 398hp benchmark:
2-3* less timing under boost
4psi less boost (actually 19psi at redline today vs 23)
Mt drag radials which do suck up hp
11:1 vs 12:1 AFR which does cost a bit of power
Good news bears is that my engine did a pull to 8500 without kerplooeys.

Excuses? I wanted to be there, but I didn't have electric at home from lunchtime on Thursday until mid Saturday afternoon. What does that have to do with my car? Nothing.
my pictures, just like my car, turned out like ****

Lulz, speaking of...
Had a great time and glad to meet some of you in person - the boost is wanted more now
I am a little skeptical about my AFR readings though, I plan to re-dyno the car at another DD dyno at some point just to get a point of comparison. I'll just avoid top end Wangan runs in the meantime.
I'm no mad scientist when it comes to this sort of thing but I would find it odd that an intake and muffler would cause such a lean condition as speculated - are all Miatas running around with intakes/full exhausts and stock fuel horribly lean? Hmmm...

I dont trust those. I know during Shueind's runs (I think just after yours) the WB stopped reporting and they reset the machine. Without any changes to the fuel map, the dyno plot reported 1 full point leaner than the last logged run. This was more inline with his LC1.
I've always found that dyno to log richer than I am.
