[DML] Re: Dyno Results - Grand National Delorean

["d_rex_2002" <rich@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I forgot to add a few other vital statistics to my Dyno results.
Also note that I have not added intercoolers to my turbo setup.

Initial testing was done running approximately 8 pounds of boost
and GN engine should easily handle 10-12 pounds of boost without
concern over detonation (with the current stock Buick chip, etc.)
The anticipated chip upgrade will allow for 'on the fly' changes.

Later,
