When you say "non-adaptive numbers", is this to say that the output will increase after this period, decrease, or possibly either?

Most Dynos (RENNtech, evolve, JBD, etc) that I've seen are putting out similar peak numbers. There are some differences in the distribution over the rpm band and, obviously, the method of getting there can have associated positives or negatives.

I look forward to your input.
Sorry about the delay in reply I wasnt referenced. Had to come browsning in here manually

I would go with a water to air intercooler anytime over using meth. Again this is preference. Meth is something that need to be tuned for to take full advantage of it. Water to Air cooling you dont and it will help with better timing and AFRs. Meth can do the same thing and alows you to increase boost, however, I dont trust meth. I have seen one guy get water logged from using meth, and too many cars catch on fire due to some freak accident leak.

It is a proven fact that after tuning a car and throwing it on a dyno same day, the dumbers you get that day are worse case number where the DME has not fully adapted yet

You can see anywhere up to a 5% increase. I have seena guy dyno his car on a car that was already settled on a tune and when he reset the adaptation and dyno again his dyno results was significanly less

You will only see a decrease if something adaptive related to performance is reset. Then ya got to start building it back up again.
