Maybe the dyno is out of calibration.

That is what I thought. I also think my teacher only took it up to 4800 rpm or so just based on the tire speed. Of course , the tire speed could be off too.

What do you think I should be hitting at the wheels Joe?

You're probably at the 300 horsepower mark on motor alone. For every pound of boost, I'd say another 15 horsepower. So if you are seeing 6 pounds of boost, I'd say 390-400 RWHP.

simple answer to this is the dyno was broke, or you guys didnt have the slightest hint of clue on what to do!

take it to a real performance shop and pay the $70.

It will be worth it when they tell you 380rwhp+(easy)
