Well 330hp is definitely much better, but still low. This all highlights the problem with getting dyno'd though. Really, it should be a tool used to measure the gains that mods give you or used to tune. Strapping on a car just to put down a number can be fun (I've done it a lot of times), but you get so much variance between dynos and weather conditions that it is pretty much pointless.

Congrats on getting a better number though.

You made a great point!! Totally agree and I'll go back to the 2nd Dyno guy in the future when I do a full exhaust to see how it changes

Actually I've seen 332HP on a bone stock ISF. So, 330 is not so far off. And those 20" wheels are not helping in the power department. However, just throwing out numbers really is not telling us anything. Seeing the graph with the conditions, the smoothing and maybe the A/F ratio would certainly help.

^ I'll load up the graph when I get to work today. Yea my 20s are boat anchors I think if I go back next time I'll throw on the stock rims see if that makes any noticeable difference

Did the heartbreaker dyno let you down? You were told the numbers on the dyno needed a 15% percent correction. Which puts your numbers at approximately 322rwhp. Not much different than your 330 on another dyno. Simply use the numbers as your baseline as you begin to further mod your F.
