while everyone may try to put their opinions out on the rolling road used and operators, pretty much everyone elses results were slightly lower than expected or around the figure they should be, so I'm not sure why Mark's read so well!!!

Which points even more towards operator error ;)

Mark - are you sure the injectors are standard? seems an odd set up that somebody has spent big £ on turbo, semi built engine, etc etc but retained standard injectors?

 

Either the dyno is wrong as standard injectors and that power figure don't add up or maybe you have got better fueling than you bargained for?

Have a look down at the caps of the injectors, can you check what colour those caps are as it should help confirm if they are 550's (which I very much expect they are)

 

I wouldn't be too worried about the peak poower figure, it doesn't mean much anyway. Early torque and spool with a good map is what makes a car fast/enjoyable. So loong as the fueling is okay and it's driving well then you know it's safe... just plenty of room for improvement ;)

I would guess Homer is correct and that you have 550s, but it is always worth a check!

 

Also, from those I have spoken to, who have been in your car, it sounds like it is spools up really well as is a good, fast street car. Many huge power, drag spec inspired turbo Supras, would be horrible on the street, despite having a impressive peak power figure!

Even if the injectors were 1000cc's, there's no way a T61 would produce that much power at 1.2 bar.

 

Nice car though, regardless of the over inflated dyno figures :)
