This was a 3rd gear pull from 75mph so it was past peak torque by the time boost was fully up, but the peak hp number should be right. I'm not sure what goes into the dyn cyl air calculation but the trend holds from 100 to 700 ftlbs based on my data gathered from my dyno time.
The education it took to come to that conclusion surely cost much more then a dyno session! That is bad *** though. Have fairly solid info that you are making over 1000 hp.

Being a 1999, his TPS should be 0%

idle is set at 700, and yes its 0% when I let off the pedal. I still have a problem on coast down since I have a loose torque converter the truck starts to swing up and down when the speed is above adaptive idle. I think more timing should help that...
