that decent i think that the average numbers for evo 9 with your mods, my advice is to run an evoscan and see how good your tune is (how agressive it is) but those are decent numbers

My mods-
TBE w/ Test Pipe
Filter
MBC@23PSI-23.5PSI
Tune
306WHP/292WTQ
Dyno Jet/91 Octane
I'm not *****ing or complaining, I find it a little amusing, because I know I have really bad luck. If you compare a Mustang dyno, I know most Mustangs usually dyno lower than Dyno Jets, so take that into account. I'm just wondering if there is a IX out there making less power than mine w/ mods and tune?
Getting a fuel pump and re-tune, hopefully put down better numbers (fingers crossed). Also love my EVO, no matter how much power she makes.

284whp was with mods, I never got a stock dyno done. My tune was done at tuning technologies, and despite my lower normals, I believe they know what they are doing for they have tuned many EVOs, and feel like when I get tuned again my numbers should fall in line with other IXs in my area. My only concern is that with my mods and no tune @20-21PSI I made 284whp, and with a tune I made 306whp, but my boost was raised to 23PSI, so how much power did I actually gain from the tune and not just the increase in boost?
Honestly it's cool, I have a lot of respect for my tuner and I don't want to make it out like he did a bad job, I'll post numbers when I get re-tuned, hopefully I'll hit atleast 320whp. Just to make it clear, Tuning Technologies is an awesome tuning shop, they've tuned many EVOs before mine and after mine, and made a lot of customers happy. As far as me, my car might not make as much power as other IXs, but she runs fine and still is fast.

The car indeed feels strong though.
