Well here are the results and yes there was a big difference in results between ASG dyno readiings (hub dyno I got 180 kw) and the MMS (roller) dyno. Steve from MMS who was the dyno operator told me I was suffering from heatsoak w/ my tmic. I need a waterspray set up to get some more power. Also worth noting that the bonnets were closed on all cars during power runs vs having the bonnet open at ASg for power runs. Probably didn't help that I drove the car to the shops and then parked it in the sun with the bonnet closed for a good hour before we put her on the dyno. Next time some dry ice on the tmic prior to the power run might see a different result. Still a fantastic day with easily a 100 spectators in attendance.

Do any of these places blow fresh air onto the intercooler intake during the power run (as would occur on the open road)?
If not, you're not getting a true indication of how it would behave on the road...

Yes they have a huge air blower they wheel up in front of the car and run. These guys do know what they are doing at Maximum Motorsports Ric. Rob and Dean Herrige own and operate MMS and have scored points in previous WRC events in Oz not to mention doing very well in Aust Rally Championships.
