Pretty much the same as the other trucks here in CA are pushing. That is an
accurate reading within less than 1 percent margin of error.

I watch a Twin Turbo Supra push nearly 600HP but not street drivable at
23PSI.

Sorry, but I have seen two different Dyno ticket, both stock on a 5 speed
and an auto. The 5 speed was rated around 207HP and the auto was rated
around 185.84 (CA 230HP version). I don't do the math but look the output
tickets. The Dynojet equipment out in a local Escondido (CA) speed shop is
fairly new. I really don't know what equipment Kenne uses for his testing
but there is a big difference. I wonder what is the tolerance level of error
is on his machine?

I witness already three Daks with the 4.7 and they have almost the same
output. In the comparison of Golden West Powerdyne testing on the 5.9. I
would expect a greater HP expectation from the 4.7 versus the 5.9 by at
least 5-7 percent on the rear wheel HP. With a 12PSI boost on the Powerdyne
it pushes the 5.9 to 376 rear wheel HP but then a 4.7 with the same mods
will push the same or more with less driveline lost.

Matt's has a Dyno ticket (5 speed, RC, 3.93 gear) and confirms my earlier
suspicion why the 4.7 just as quick as the 5.9 R/T. His Dyno ticket said
the same as the local Daks here within less than 1.0 percent error margin.
However, I don't which version of Dyno equipment it was done on.

This is why I am asking...
