Ah yes. I forgot about the calibration of them factoring into the numbers. Even still that seems low.

That's what I'm chocking it up to, dynos being different. The powerband still pulls like mad!

Makes sense. Everything I've read says the 09's are down on power from last year.

Make sure you check the a/f ratio. You might have more top end but you could have a flat spot somewhere in the power band. Watch your torque curve as well. It may be a little more peaky than the stock setup.

Yeah, it does. My '04 636 made 112 at the wheel on a Dynojet. That's a pretty serious fluxuation.
