And I was just wondering if any of my other mods might be contributers to my numbers? I've always heard that rotating mass affects real world HP and torque numbers. (flywheel, clutch, underdrive, wheels/tires)

Colder plugs are supposed reduce detonation(?) and thus allow more power to be made???

Mike said something about the fuel pump increased pressure allowed for lower injector duty cycles...

I was just throwing those things around as possible discussion points as to whether they or the weather might impact dyno numbers.

All our cars Rock.

I devoured many Audis, Porsches, a Lotus and a race car or two at Thunderhill, and am still hungry. I want my DMSes back from Oh-Canada...
Dean...

Your tire: 235/40/17 = 24.4" diameter or 225/45/17 = 25.0" diameter

Matt's tire: 245/40/18 = 25.7" diameter

Matt's car probably makes more hp and torque than yours based on the tire gearing difference alone, nevermind the loss from turning 28lb 18" wheels.
