Yep, Someone thought their dyno may have been running little low because some of us didn't see the numbers we should have like; i know of a built RSX that was just tuned/dyno'd last week up in Madison and made 250 but today only made 216.

I myself thought i would at least be seeing 290ish

Dyno's are just tuning tools and you have to keep using the same one or else you waste your time. Numbers are just numbers.

Welcome.

A lot of your pictures including op are broken.... Been moved or deleted on Photobucket.

Nice car....

Now you can put a sticker "bought, not built"... lol j/k. Just had to throw a Honda joke in there.

Late Model Throttle in Waukesha also has a dyno. Their dyno is a ways into their building that the weather really doesn't affect readings and I believe their dyno is spot on.

Ah William's Bay? Too bad they closed George Williams!

I spent my summer's growing up in Fontana...so I'm pretty familiar with the area. Actually I worked on the water safety patrol up there for 6 years.
