My car is a little bit faster...

The dyno ramp rate will control the way the engine accelerates up the RPM range. I have this same dyno.
Many engine dyno runs are run in a ramp RPM Hold release to next RPM hold and release vs a full RPM sweep. This dyno can also be run in that simulated RPM Hold and release in a stepped rate.

Yes, you are correct about the full sweep from the launch/release point and the ending RPM point. However, the dyno operator can adjust the time between these two points. The dyno operator WILL control this ramp rate in seconds.. Find out and ask what the ramp rate was. 6 seconds, 10 seconds or more between the two points. The engine will not be able to break out of that ramp rate.

Had the car out on the track today but was very very wet and did not do any data logging. I can tell the car is much faster/has lots of power though. Motor ran great. Power delivery very similar to previous below 3500 rpm, but above that, wow, pulls really nicely!! I may or may not get out again this year, will look forward to my next track day.

A wet track day is better than no track day! Didn't have any 'offs' and got home safe so did okay - am happy. It did get a little dicey in a few corners with standing water and hydroplaning on the front straight but could get quite a bit of the power down with some care, the motor is very well behaved. Thanx again.
