hmmm... They said I was running very very rich and was overboosting. They dropped me down to 20 psi and I'm using the Hallman Pro RX so I should be retaining boost well unless my BOV is releasing to soon. That's a possibility I'm checking out. I ordered a replacement spring from turbo xs.

i would get it dyoed somewhere else to double check. MY car also dynoed substantially less than the power i should be making.
I thought this was a bit suspicious b/c my quartermile times were right on track.
I spoke with Shiv about the DTS dyno, and there are couple things to consider. the most important is to make sure that the different input factors are constant across different readings (e.g. yours and the other guy on here with the 260hp on the same dyno). For example, on the DTS dyno, you can adjust for humidity, and what you put in can affect greatly the power that the dyno reads.
Also note that ap-evo83 has an AVO exhaust, which Brainstorm sells. I don't want to start pointing fingers, so ill leeave this where it is, but it seems like their dyno numbers for their own products seem a great deal higher than for other products.
Now, this may be because their products are substantially better, but im skeptical simply b/c of mismatch, on my car, between my dyno reading and my acceleration numbers. I mean, their AVO exhuast is advertised as making 50 hp in and of itself on their website.
Their APS package, with a turboback, intake, and chip, makes 295-300 hp on their dyno, and stock ones read about 235hp.
Im having Shiv dyno my car in the near future, and ill post up the comparisons.

they recommended i get the S-AFC and perhaps a K&N Intake Kit(to remain CARB legal as the HKS is not) and perhaps that would give me an extra 20-30 hp.
my main problem according to them is that I'm running way too rich.

dynos just display numbers. That one seems weird though because the HP and TQ dont cross at 5250.
