You can try Wyatt at RacePrep.net or TurboGS.com .. or go vortech direct..

Is this Wyatt's car under a different alias, and with the help of dyno tuning, is his car really pulling in these numbers? If so, I'm very impressed.

Looks like it.. I just can't see the torque numbers being so far ahead of the HP of a 420A..
Weird. I'll have to ask him when i talk to him next.. My boost gauge quit working, so i'm gonna order a new one.. SPI gauges are cheap ;-)

Umm.
I am HIGHLY cynical as to those numbers. Let me rephrase. Those are bullshit numbers. Greg made 282fwhp@15psi. Greg runs the T04E BB, basically the largest turbo offered with the Star kit. This dyno is saying he made this at 16psi. Gregs numbers might be able to be raised with some more work, but I doubt by the large difference present here. If we forget the hp number for a minute, the torque is way off. I would take this dyno with a grain of salt.

I agree with Murix here, but i know through mutual friends and connections Wyatt isn't running a STAR setup anymore. He has upgraded to a 60-1 trim BB T03/T04, with a BIG front mount, as well as a completely different fuel system (staged multiple injector banks and such)
However, i don't think it's possible to be making that much torque in that curve with a 420A. That's gotta be a BS dyno.

I personally think that dyno sheet was from this car. . .

That would make complete sense. That would also explain why the dyno does not go over 6k and power falls off around 5-5.5k. We can not physically make that much power with this kind of curve. It would be peaky for a 420A.
