I'm just waiting for BS flags to appear - I can hardly believe the result myself .
However : Look at how the torque curve does not drop away after 7000 like most 8s
Also - my greddy turbo on a stock block was only making marginally more power than this (on the same dyno) at 5 psi !

Porting will have helped too but not by that much . Have a look at the slope of the plot after 7500 and see if you can find any other dyno of an 8 that just keeps going up and up like that ! An extra 27 odd whp after 7500 !

just thought I'd pop in and see what the yapping was all about
any way, I found this in about 5 seconds ..

DynoTorque Dynamometer's
When I started Torque Performance in 1992 there were no 4wd chassis dynos commercially available in New Zealand or Australia.
The dynos from Europe were too expensive to consider, So I got together with a friend and designed our first 4wd chassis dyno.
A little while later workshop owners were knocking at the door asking if they could purchase a control system the same as ours for their existing dynobeds.
Dyno Torque was born.
Today we are still manufacturing Dyno Control Systems for existing dynos and last year started making complete dyno sets.
The photos below are of a 4WD DynoTorque Dyno installed in December 2006 (Total Performance Center) in Hamilton, New Zealand.

Maybe - It's the only thing on the list that has a big ? about it .

Somebody should test it after running the car for a couple of hours to see how our alternator deals with it.
Cool, you're officially in charge of keeping me updated lol.

Electric water pumps may or may not be a good idea. It depends on how our alternator deals with them. It's true that you remove a parasitic loss but it's also true that the alternator has to work more to keep the ewp running. As the alternator gets hotter it should draw more power from the engine to keep running. Of course that doesn't happen after a run on a dyno...
