jimbo....

cannot tell from your post, are you saying that hp/tq MUST cross at 5252 as a fact or as sarcasm?

i look at their graph and the stock ones cross between 5300 and 5400, and the SC ones cross between 5200 and 5300.

when i had my CT SC done, it crossed between 5200 and 5300.

whats your point?

Jimbo,

You're right, whats a few hundred RPM among friends...

What is the percentage of error on a dyno, ANY dyno.

how often are the data points collected, every 1, 50, 100, 1000 rpm, will the crossover point be different the farther apart the the points are?

have you gone over every dyno sheet ever posted by every vendor and every member and if they do not cross at your mathematically calculated number raised the BS flag and called it phony doctoring by the poster?

i already have my SC, when i want more power i will go with the smaller pulley and when available maybe the intercooler, have no plans on swapping over to them, or to a turbo, so i have no vested interest, but i do think you are being just a little bit over critical about this.

kits are being shipped shortly, i am sure that at least one of the people getting it is gonna hit a dyno, so we might as well wait for that to happen.

it will probably be a dynojet anyway, so they are gonna post higher numbers than Vortech did.

Will that make you happy?

Boy Jimmy/Jimbo, I sense some hostility here.....

Its is interesting how you have so much faith in the almighty Dynojet.

Also, Explain how when you change your flywheel to a lighter unit (or change final drive ratio in the differential) on the vehicle, the Dynojet shows that you are making more HP...hmmm.

FYI... The notion that the HP and Torque curves must cross at 5252 only works when both curves are plotted on axis' that are scaled the same... if you look at the graph above you'll see that the Tq axis is numbered differently than the Hp axis. However, if you look at the value of Torque at 5252RPM ~370 you'll notice that the value of Hp is also ~370 at 5252RPM... If that wasnt the case then its time to call BS.
