Hell yeah... I hope to do my own swap soon (well, not me do it, but you know what I mean). But, what the engine is, I will not tell.

Yeah..it was a boost problem...not a tuning issue...we were playin with the boost lines hopin that we could raise boost on the dyno(didn't work well)!! my car is street tuned @ 18 psi....yet on the dyno it never gets over 15.5 psi....my 294whp was at 15.5 psi...i regularly hit 18psi on the street....so you can figure about 10hp per lb of boost being lost on the dyno....at least another 25hp on the street easy!!
