I thought about it... just didnt see the need since I just had 12 pulls done less then 3 months ago. 
also I want to stick with the same dyno for any changes I make to be the most accurate. (also try to pick the same type of weather)

looks like the outcome is that the recall flash is GOOD (????) I think i was the only one out there with pre-recall and I came in dead last 
.....and yes I have K&N v.2 intake and HKS exhuast so lack of intake/exhaust isn't the cause (is it?) Unless HKS just sucks *** *ducks and covers*

Interesting to see hp and torque numbers on my one 2nd gear pull. Big drop in torque, but HP was about the same. I beleive the torque on the 3rs and 4th gear runs was close to 138-140...where as second gear pull was at 100.

interesting observation Brettus. I was a bit surprised no one had commented on that graph yet...

Both of us dyno'd over 190 hp. I believe XdeedubbX also changed coil packs and he too was above 190.

I was comparing the RB flash'd cars to my graph yesterday and I noticed that the dips in power are much smaller with the cars that have the RB flash. Definitely gives you something to think about...

Yea, Razz does have the Mazdatrix wires. I saw them when I popped the trunk to get his car all hooked up for the dyno runs.
