Huh, what's your point? It wasn't 29psi, it was 32. I can't wait to see 32psi in action against my 26psi, because you can't race on a dyno. Nothing wrong with dyno numbers, but wouldn't someone who is interested in their power levels also be interested in the car performing well other than on the dyno? It's like you guys try so hard to refute me that you don't even read what you type. Think about what you're saying. You think it makes sense to spend money and try hard to make a big number on a dyno but then toss on other non-engine mods that reduce performance? Or, do you think it makes sense to run around bragging about being the champion of dyno numbers without a single timeslip to prove the car can perform? After all, a single gear while stationary in a non-real-world environment with no launching or shifting is quite a bit different than proving it on the track. Sure, it's fine to do mods, get tuned, and make power...it's quite another to talk shit about it relentlessly without doing anything.
