I think the dyno was wrong.

Well I finally got to dyno today and I think it was off. From what I understand they never even loaded it. My first pull was 569hp and 1080Tq. I ran the ADR comp1 pl10, no smarty and sprayed a 60-70hp shot of nitrous. Then the guy said My tire was hanging half way off on one side and I couldnt make another pull with those tires. that initially gave me hope that it was dragging but it looked like it had spun on the roller. I pulled off and ended up putting stock tires on since I drove almost 3 hours to go. The next three pulls were all right above 540hp with nitrous then the last was only like 471Hp with no spray. Call me crazy but wouldnt it take more than 471Hp tp propel my truck to a 12.85 1/4 mile on fuel only? I was really expecting to be over 600 on spray.

Those numbers are good....If your truck only weighs 5100 pounds.

Pete, something doesn't sound right. You had Jammer 5's, HTT 62/12 along with Juice w/ Hot Attitude putting down over 500 horse. The on fuel doesn't seem right to me......

I didnt even have the HOT unlock then. I know for a fact from the track the truck is alot stronger now. Here is the sheet from the first run.

I would have thought you would have been at LEAST 600hp on fuel and over with the NOS. But those are still good numbers, congrats.

I didn't think about it earlier but the type of dyno always has a good bit to deal with it. I think John dynoed somewhere out in the midwest and only put down in the 700 horse range, you and me both know what that truck is capable of.....

i used a mustang dyno back in feb...the 2nd of feb to be exact...down in anderson, sc...without the EZ and when i had the CON FE i put down 399/1116...and that's without pull'n off the duals...so i was very happy...the guy pulled it 2 more times just to be sure...and i still have the factory down pipe to the 5" exhuast.....that's the only way i figured i made so much torque...

Well I think I have figured it out partially. After talking to Tommy I only used 1lb of nitrous out of the bottle. It did have a hissing leah so I'm supposing that that could be where the 1lb went. Looking at the vids on the 475 run that I thought was the only fuel only run the truck down shifted so that could account for the lower # on that run if the solenoid never opened on any of the runs. I ran a 12.71 1/4 mile on fuel only tonight so Either way I think the 475 is bogus.
