We just took our street car to the chassis dyno today. We got 312hp at 5750 and 301tq at 4500. The numbers seem to be off to me since we run mid 11 in the quarter. It was done on a Mustang dyno. But we had a good time and learn some. We did a 1/4 mile run on the dyno to and showed a 14.4 at 108mph but we filled the shop with tire smoke and I had to put it into high right off the bat because the tach went straight to 6000 and would not fall until i got it into high. Everyone there thought we would be around 250hp so at least we surprised them with our Pontiac.
