Awesome pics, gorgeous car!

I did a similar drive the day I bought my S...I bought it at a dealership in Petaluma, so my friend in his Cooper S and I cut through the mountain roads onto the coast and drove down through Stinson & Muir Woods ..was a great first drive (but of course a bit scary and not pushing anywhere near the limits as I didn't know the car at all at that point). Definitely some awesome roads up there!

You have to realize dynapacks read 10% higher because your wheels are not on. Thats why I never get dynoed on dynapacks

I never take ANY dyno as a 100% defacto number. The only thing it's fair to compare it with are the numbers produced by cars from the same exact shops dyno, since they all seem to be calibrated differently. With three bolt-ons and an unfinished tune I'm very happy with the differences.

Also I think u might be thinking of traditional dynapack graphs which post flywheel numbers in which caus would run 20-22% higher. These readings were saw corrected for wheel hp/tq
