Silicone Express II Dynotest!

Silicone Express II was Dynotested yesterday, 24th of July 2013 at AEL in Helsinki. We were positively supriced about the dyno result. Engine put down to the ground from rear wheels 385kw (523,6hv) Constant Power and Peak Power 400kw (544hp) with 32psi turbo boost. From somereason we could not get the turbo boost built up as high on dyno what I get on open road. On the road test right after the dyno run, was verified correct max. turbo boost being 38 to 40psi. With that turbo boost we assume real power put to the rear wheels would be around 580+ hps, when engine power would be around 660 to 680hp's.
