Nirtous effects on HP @ RPM
I've seen tests and usually when they say 150HP shot, they are correct and they get exactly 150HP. I'm wondering...
My 383 hits 456HP @ 5400 rpm
------------477ftlbs @ 4500rpm
Will the maximum HP @ rpm range move up or down?

moving to the power adder board, they should be able to help you more over there.

Of course power is increased across the board as long as the system is engaged. Usually the power curve remains somewhat simular with peaks in about the same areas.

Isn't a "150 HP shot" just an abstract way of saying "6 lb/min"? The actual HP gain will vary with other engine parameters?
