Default dyno help ?????

a few months ago i dynoed my truck with the 100hp jets in.... at 4400rpm the graph drops from 396hp to 341hp real quick and my a/f goes from 12.2 to 9.75....my motor should be making power to 5300rpm .....could detonation be the problem ???? will detonation make the motor drop that much power and make the a/f pig rich .....bottle pressure was 1050 and i only had 92 gas in the tank........i have not been back to the dyno since but would like to redyno soon with the 125hp shot and 104 gas......what do you think???

heres the dyno sheet

I've never seen detonation change the a/f ratio on my wideband. Sounds like the power drop is due to being too rich. You need to figure out what caused the richness.
