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.

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?

here is an interesting question, it was done on a chassis dyno, where the tires the same? if they werent, since it takes the HP and torque at the wheels, a differnt tire diameter would change your numbers due to the change in final drive ratio
