Default No longer a Dyno virgin

I had the chance to put my 1988 951S on a Dynojet Dyno this moring - I've never done this before so it was a fun experience. This car is a track-only car that is being gradually prepped for PCA E-Stock - the car currently has less than 20k miles on it.
The only modifications that've been made are suspension related and a 3" Lindsey exhaust system (open all the way from the turbo...no cat & no muffler). Because of the PCA regulation, I can't make any modifications between the air filter and the exhaust.
Any comments? Anything that the experts think I should do?
Thanks much.

Would have thougt the 3" freel flow ex. would have gotten more results, as those numbers work out to be about what a bone stock S model makes.

That's a little odd to me. Should put down way more torque I think.

About a month ago my E-stock Turbo put down 217rwhp and 250rwtq on the dyno at Autothority. Similar exhaust to yours(SFR), yet with 140k miles on the clock. Rebuilt head & K26/8, Club Gate WG, but stock bottom end. My A/F looks similar to yours.

Re-route the intake so you intake from the roof, that way your whole motor is not in between.
Other than that .. I'd get your car aligned nicely, a set of sticky rubber and light wheels.
Could also have someone that knows what they're doing mess with the MAF door, see if you can pick up a few more horses.

Sam,
I'm not telling you anything more until you bring your avatar to the next dinner/drinks time. (When/Where is it BTW?).

Preston - I've already got 3 sets of Forgeline wheels (2 w/ Hoosiers & 1 with rain tires).

Wright Tuning in Cinci set the car up - they're very good and know what they're doing. They're currently supporting two cars running in the Grand Am series and numerous PCA racers.

Cheers,

Rick
