It may not read right because you dont get the effect of the intercooler while the car is sitting still.
if ur running ice in ur intercooler coolant reservoir, then it has the same effect. its totally different from an air to air intercooler.but yes, they still got a huge fan posted up in front of the cars they dyno, and it blows hella hard.
I'm aware of the fan but I doubt it has the same effect as running 105 MPH with cooling. Anyway it was just a theory.

well like i said, no matter how u look at it, 60 degree water is 60 degree water whether ur moving or staying still. Just constantly add ice to it to keep the temperature the same while doing dyno pulls, after all, when at the track, i always bring a bag of ice and circulate the intercooler pump to keep the temperature nice and cold. Same on the dyno.

can we please just have a dyno sheet and/or times, honestly, screw whoever calls bs because most poeple that are actually keeping up with this thread won't call bs, we would just like to know what power you are putting down.
and to whoever said about why didn't he use a teksid block, if his car didn't come stock with one, it didn't matter whether or not he just got a teksid or cast iron that held his HP level, granted teksid would be lighter/not as hot

i say post dynos or slips. more people will call BS if you don't. i can show pictures of my car and claim it to have 900RWHP, but that doesn't make it true.

I have a bad feeling that he is about to do exactly that.

this is the reason he's saying he doesn't want to post, how about you not **** him off so he will post these dyno/time slips of his

well normally it's the complete opposite. if someone DOESN'T believe your car has X mods, X power, etc, you post proof. if we went soley on everyone's word for how fast their car was, then we'd all have 1000HP vehicles.

u run faster than an 11.5 in az without a cage, then u get banned till u get a cage
Damnit! I'm going to have to weld in a cage next spring as well, arg.
NHRA rules I believe state 11.49 or faster requires an approved cage, so if you race at a track that enforces the rules time to start welding . Last time I was at Famoso there was a dude with a modded Termie, said he'd had it down to 11.30's before but he wanted the stock look in the interior and didn't want a cage, so he was only running 11.80's to avoid having to put one in.

Also I think the rules for a vert are 12.49 for a cage but I could be wrong
