About the only thing I can think of at this point is my computer holding the engine back from producing the power, but even that is a reach for my mind.

I found an A9L for $125, would it be worth it compared to my A9P?

What gear did you run it in? In the T5 isn't the 1:1 gear 4th?

it is a t5 and the 1:1 is 4th. I brought that up to the guy and he said that with his dyno it didnt matter what gear you run in. we did most the testing in 3rd, but made one run in 4th and came up with the same numbers

Are you Speed density or mass air?

Did you get the MAF calibrated to the 24lb injectors? Looks like you're running quite lean in some places too

Timing can make a world of difference.

Edit: You're also running a bit rich on topend.

the whole lean rich thing is what killing me about all this. no matter what adjustments we made to it the mixture didnt change very much. if you notice the green line that look nice and smooth was directly after adjusting the fuel pressure. the blue was 30 seconds later after the computer readjusted everything back to the way it was. and yes timing does help, i thats how i got it above the 190hp i was running before this.

wow somthing is really wrong with those numbers. If you have h/c/i you should be putting out 250rwhp plus.

Sorry to hear it. But try a different dyno shop maybe? Where did you get yours done?
