Post 400+ Hp/ 475+ Ft-Lbs. after trip to JDM

I put my L on a Dyno yesterday to see what it is putting out after my trip to JDM Engineering prior to the Englishtown event. I was quite impressed with the results.

Both the horsepower and torque graphs are smooth and relatively flat.
The two runs shown are SAE corrected. Actual power made was 425 HP with better air than "standard" conditions, SAE correction dropped horsepower to 405 average between the runs.
Performance mods include JDM tuning, JDM 90 mm MAF /filter kit/oval throttle body, JDM upper blower pulley, JDM torque convertor, electric fan & aluminum driveshaft. 4:10 gears, and Borla cat-back system. This combo netted a 12.47@108 at Englishtown on Sunday following the JDM sponsored event.

Thanks to Jim for making my truck even more awesome!

Note: On the lower graph the tires broke loose on the dyno causing the 532+ torque readings. We lowered air pressure before the next run shown in the lower graph.

Is it the blower that makes these horsepower and torque graphs cross at 4600 instead of 5250 like everyother chart I can remember ?

And since 5200 makes the blower turn 13670 and you have a ? smaller? pulley ? It it turning 20k at 6200 rpm ? Or was that a larger pulley because you are turning the motor faster so you slowed the blower down?
Did I miss something along the way ?
The only thing i ever ran with a blower before were 16, or 12, or 8 cylinder diesels

The lines cross at 4600 just becasue thats how the graph is set up. Hp is on the verticle axis on the right, and torque is on verticle axis on the left. Thats all.
By the laws of physics, they must always cross at 5250.

Damn bob, thats good to know.

Mines got to be right around that with all the similar mods I have done. I need to make an apointment to get mine on the dyno.

Now you just need a 100 wet kit on there, HEHEHEHEHE. "Why not, I'm doing it?"
