As I said above there is too many other factors which will result in different outcomes. Also the FD you spoke of ran those times at around 2700 lbs, because listing the car with out the driver weight is useless. The car didn't drive it self down the track, an average person I would think to be 140-200 lbs. Another thing to think about which may not make much of a difference, but this is in a 240SX not FD. I just think to prove the the claims another dyno run would be the best route to take.

I am with David on this one as well. You CAN run your car down the 1/4 and shift it regular on a shitty 60 foot and your trap speed will be your best. The car should trap in the 128-130 then it makes 500rwhp area. My best 60 has been on a 2.1 60 foot!!! As far as boost goes I would imagine him being closer to 20 to hit that number if not even a tad more.

Anything is possible but I never trust dyno numbers. Its kinda like going to the track, you usually leave with a slower time than you came to run. Same goes on the dyno.

Most dyno's can and are manipulated. You want a happy customer.

BUT in the end all that really matters is YOU are happy with your car. Just got to watch out claiming a certain number requires more than a dyno sheet now a days.
