I'm just trying to compare to the 944spec guys and see where I stand. Maybe the cat is worth 3-5HP and the different dynos are off by 5%. I just wanted to make sure nothing was wrong with my car, and it doesn't appear that anything is. Thanks for your help.

Ken,
Without more Data I cannot say you are low on hp. I have heard similar hp for 1 other 944 NA in street stock trim.
I don't know how much the Cat is worth. I need more information to find out. Right now you have 1 data point and 3 points from differet cars with different mods. From my experience the 944-spec number appear correct and consistent. I honestly cannot say your are abnormally low. I don't have the data to prove it. Before you start chasing a problem that may not be there try to gather more 944 NA dyno charts for cars with a cat.

You're right, i just noticed a typo in the previous post. I meant "doesn't appear that anything is wrong". In fact, I guessed 120HP before the run was done and I'm happy I hit that. It would just be cool to have that extra 10HP/TQ that you guys are getting. <img border="0" alt="[burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
So how bout it, does anyone else have an 944na dyno charts? Perhaps Geoffrey has some on file?
