Maybe the dyno people think we drive Hondas or something....
Fool! We need that shish TIGHT so we don't go moving all over the drums!
Hey Dyltone, do you have a video camera you can probably catch a different angle of the run? Would like to hear this beast in person.
PS....300whp has become the norm when going F/I with the tC. But now we are all slowly moving towards 400+whp being the norm. This thread is a good motivator.

well the dyno today was fun. i came with slicks and was still burning tires on the dyno. we let air out of the slicks to 9psi. finally the tires hooked. when that happened my stage 4 clutch sliped real bad. 
my tuner said that until i get a better clutch and lsd, he wont be able to get an acurate reading on what kind of #'s im really laying down. my best run that the dyno showed was on 16psi with the tires sliping. made 343whp, and 347lbsft. witch on a dynojet would be about 394whp and 399lbsft. and again thats with tires sliping. im gonna go to the track still and see what time i can get. the car is pushing 18 psi. im hoping if i can feather the launch, and run about 14psi in the tires, then maybey i can get 11's and not destroy my clutch.

^^Just remember. You break 11's and that will be your last run. They won't let you run anymore.
PS...what is the tire/wheel specs on your Slicks? Remember to feather out good, wouldn't want you to break an axle or something...

before everyon has a heart atack, i'll tell you that my best time was 12.9@ 109 i think. ok heres what happened i started off running 14 psi in the slicks and was running 13.8s spining tires through 4th. i let out pressure down to 10 psi and bogged down on my launch and got a 12.9. finally i stoped caring about snaping an axle and got a really good launch, and poped a piece of piping out of its coupler and the car shut down right there on the track 
with a little mor practice on my launch, i can see running low 12s. and once i get a new clutch in, then mabey high 11's.
