Great Numbers and thanks for the post. Im going to be using the same dyno when my car is ready. My car has been on their dyno before and I believe it was very accurate based on the setup I had.

Those numbers look very strong and you certainly made it clear with your results just how sensitive this car is to heat. I look forward to your post header results.

FYI for All...
So in other words.. Your real world numbers are much closer to DYNO RUN #4...
Your TQ numbers look all in line from run to run..
To be very honest with you .. "Cooling Down Engine" before Dyno runs is a great way to see what max RWHP you can yeild.. On the Dyno...
But in reality, the motor, trans, fluids, etc etc are NOT running at normal operating temps...
AMHIK..
Either way, nice runs and thank you for sharing..

Yes and no I would say everything is at operating temperature since I did 4 passes to 175mph all within 15 minutes except I'm cooling the radiator down for 10 minutes to achieve the best numbers, but also if it was 40 degrees here not 90 and humid I would not have these issues. We are thinking to try putting in a cooler thermostat and run a different coolant mixture with water wetter to see if we can correct this problem of retarding timing after 5200rpms. It's very strange cause when it's cooled for 10min it feels as of it hits another power band @5200 vs falling flat and dull when it's not.

I wonder if your on to something with the better cooling... the ISF seems very sensitive to temperature, I would think it has more to do with intake temps rather then coolant temps. I bet the coolant temps aren't changing THAT much given adequate fans.
