Did you use the same dyno...location, type, operator? I'm sure you understand those variables.

Nonetheless, 260 or 281 is a good bit of punch in a Miata. I want a ride!

I'm anxious to up the boost on the Subaru-been enjoying it last 15,000 miles...definitely needs more power in my opinion. It still doesn't make my legs shake twitch after a good ride like the Corvette did. :grin:

Neat project you have.

Both were dynojets, everything else was different. I definitely know there are a ton of variables, but there is no way that car made 281 with the stock exhaust. It is a night and day difference on the street. The only way the car could have made it, was if having no load on the dyno somehow let the car not back up above 5,500rpm. Who knows? I only went to get a number incase someone asks how much power it has. I even told the dyno guy I don't care if it is 200, 250, or 300rwhp, it feels great to me and that's all that matters.
