Had some fun with the XR! Set the boost at 18psi, drove it around for 4 hard runs to make sure we didn't hear detonation, and then put it on the dyno.
Max Power: 302.4
Max Torque 310.0
At the wheels :-)
I feel good about these numbers because they were real world. It was an already hot engine from our 4 runs, and the dyno was in the direct sun. The second run with abour 30 seconds cooldown lost a coupel of HP but still right there, so I feel it's a pretty repeatable number.
Sadly, I know have the boost turned back down for the track, but it was quite fun that that level!
Good to see everyone there!
