I Think The Dyno Was Wrong.
No, Normally dynojets are what most diesel's base their number on. The mustang reads lower, the dynocomm's and other's can be set to read much higher!
Compared with other setups pete's numbers do sound a little low. Maybe not that much low but still a little low. Secondly, He's not using a very big nitrous setup!
I'm thinking maybe around 40 low

Well I think I have figured it out partially. After talking to Tommy I only used 1lb of nitrous out of the bottle. It did have a hissing leah so I'm supposing that that could be where the 1lb went. Looking at the vids on the 475 run that I thought was the only fuel only run the truck down shifted so that could account for the lower # on that run if the solenoid never opened on any of the runs. I ran a 12.71 1/4 mile on fuel only tonight so Either way I think the 475 is bogus.

Personally...I only care about what it runs at the track!!
Dynos are good for tuning and to see if an upgrade made a difference but so is the track.
ET's and MPH don't lie......but don't tell John_P I said that I don't like dyno's

. I tried to hit it @60mph and it downshifted on the dyno though. It does then every now and again.

Yeah...it was dropping fuel pressure like crazy on the dyno and I bought a FASS but haven't installed it yet.
I installed a full return regulated fuel system on the truck when I put larger sticks in it and it will drop pressure anything over 1/2 throttle with a race tune in it.
Gotta get my lazy butt busy and install the Fass....John has offered to help me but I always have something going on
I built the race truck and just put the diesel on the back burner for now

My truck really isn't fast enough to play with most of those guys plus I'm still on stock headgaskets and trans.
I don't want to spray it enough to keep up cause the trans will not be able to handle it for long.
I'm shooting for mid 5's in the 1/8th with my race truck and to me it is more fun than the diesel.....I know John doesn't like to hear that though...
