I finally got my car dynoed. I expected to be making more power, so I'm disappointed.

Next step for me is to re-flash stock firmware (except euro version of the software instead of US), send that file over to Evolve. Then go dyno the stock firmware, flash and dyno again to verify a gain.

The only reason I can think of for the lower than expected output is that I'm due for a valve adjustment. Could this cause the power I'm seeing? I'll make sure to get that done before the next dyno as well.

This dyno gives results about 10% lower than the most common dynos, so multiply by 1.1 to get a more standard number and 1.25 to get a rough crank number. I got 250. I was expecting at least 10-15hp more.

What do you guys think?
