Still damn good though.
Funny that even after my header upgrade I haven't noticed any difference in boost at 10.psi with the 3.4" pulley. I would have expected it to drop a couple of psi. :?
Gauging my hp increases since stock 240 bhp, I am estimating 300 bhp. At the wheels, I would expect it to be around 240 whp, so 247 is very good.
How'* the calibration on the dyno since the last time you were there, or is it a different shop?
At least you got a boost in torque and that'* what a street driven car needs.
I'd be interested to see what your DHP does when you get it.

Put a pair of Magnaflows on there Todd... 
I don't want to have to read about Dyno bad news anymore.

Wow, interesting stuff. I'm anxious to see the results with a DHP, my SSEi with a pulley doesn't feel as fast as the GTP. Is that the consensus that the SSEi PCM has more conservative settings than the GTP?
Cheers,
