Default Hard to believe, dyno run......

A lot of you know about my quest for 3 more hp n tq. I'm not a believer in this chart but I had to post it. Not sure if its a scam our not, anyways the tuner actually did the three runs stopped and said there is no way he can get what i though this build was capable of and stopped the tune. I couldn't believe my eats and eyes. My first build was a w6 @10.5:1 hillside heads, tuned in at 94 torque and 85 hp. Second build w8 @11:1 and refreshed hillside heads. 96.8 tq and 96.5 hp. Both strong reliable runners and definitely more performance with the w8. So as some of you know i wanted that 100/100 mark. Well according to this dyno these are the numbers i got...
Do you think something is wrong. I know what i have and this sheet does not reflect it. Hell when i get on it really hard and bring forth up to105 I'm actually nervous about grabbing 5th and continuing and not even thinking about 6th. It truly is scary fast. So i called Scott and told him of my dilemma. He found it incomprehendable then suggested i make the 300 mile trip to Munnsville and get it on the dyno. So guess where I'm headed?
Friday is the new judgement day...
What do you guys think?..........

no other dyno`s in your area? don't think you need to drive 300 miles.just find another in your area and see if the #`s are close (what CID is this motor?)

It truly is scary fast.

Why the need for an expensive piece of paper?

Fisrt time tuned was at Rosa's, and was in line with what we see here, and actually just a tick more on his drum, the W-8 was on our 150 Dynojet, and right in line with what we see as a norm for that combo since we've done that build now since that cam to market.
Third build is with a a prototype 1-off, never concieved cam.
I do know that when looking for big power on an engine of that size,(or any size for that matter) all components need to work togather in complete harmony.

For many years i was not financially capable of building "my ultimate bike" and with my new job I have the funding to do just that. When i was younger and no responsibility i would put most of my money into street cars working with a local shop in Schenectady. Then came the family life and all that dispersed till now. I've been on this crusade to build a 100/100 evo and actually had a specific grind cam made for me by Bob Wood. So the "PAPER" at this point is the final statement....hopefully quest ended....

I think the best way to get the right numbers is to go to the most reputable tuner near you and who is not a close associate of the builder. Kinda "Trust but Verify" stuff.

True that Scott. I do believe that the Bassani 2-1 pipe had something to do with it so i put The RB Racing pipe back on.....

Our dyno has NEVER been at the root of any question here!!!
If anything, it reads a bit less than a 250i.
So without calling us a liar, you are calling us a liar..........?
I see.
