Yep she is getting dynoed this weekend so I will take videos of that and it should be a very realistic sound under load and also we will see what kind of power she puts down...  
I am hoping for 180 at the wheels...

 :) Well my Meggy got dynoed today... and even thou it was rainy day it turned out fine... the air was nice and cool at F 55.5.
I gave the guy the wrong numbers for the gear ratios and the final drive so I had to go back to the shop and have it recalculated with the right numbers and the guy was nice enough to give me the actual data points... so I got a little creative and decided to make up a nice graph... so what you see down below is what I was able to get on my 2nd run...
... and so I was surprised of the power she put down but it was all good.... very pleased with the results...
The car has 85000mi... its been babied always so the motor is as strong as it gets...

Now mind you the car has a K&N Filter and a Steinmetz Exhaust, 94Ocatane... and it was in sport mode for all three runs...
I can tell the exhaust was a huge difference across the RPM but I didn't think it would be that much... so I am happy with the results...
This one is the best run as the other ones were not that far off... The other two were 190HP and 187HP

Here is the corrected value because apparently for some reason we cant figure out the gearing of our cars, I have found 3 different gear sets for them... one being 1.467, 1.48 and 1.62 so the 1st graph was based on the 1.48 gear ratio with the 3.90 final and the last graph was with the 1.62 but still not bad considering what the motor is rated at...
