Blue pulled some great numbers on the same dyno but the two cars are not in the same state of tune.

Big Blue
91 octane
Steve's Head
Schrick Cam
Steve's T/B
380cc Injectors
JCW flash
3% Crank Pulley + JCW = 17%
Alta V2 IC
Alta Header
Borla Sport

Little Black
91 octane
El Head
Stock cam
Stock T/B
Stock Injectors
Stock ECU
Stock Crank Pulley
Alta 15%
DFIC
OBX
Milltek

Yes you can. I ran into heat issues as well with the M7 DFIC on the dyno.
