My guess is that the car you ran against is not running the 6.7 psi that the owner of the car in the dyno database is. If it was only making around 450 WHP then you should have been able to run at least equal or beat it if your manual VT2-625 is making 520+ WHP as most do.

If our cars were making 450rwhp with 6.5 PSi we would never have even thought of releasing such an inefficient kit.

Steven Nestore's car runs 6.7 PSi. Wayne's car ran under 5 PSi on when it made 450rwhp due to one of the vacuum hoses not being connected to bank 1 blow off valve. Once connected back up, runs a consistent 6.5 PSi on the road again.
