KenP,
FYI, I finally spoke with someone over at LAPD today and they said they were not allowed to post because the owner of this board saw them as competition because LAPD sells SMA stuff and so does the owner of this board. At any rate, they seem to know what they are doing and are the only ones in SoCal with a 4WD Dynojet. They could have shared good info with us, but oh well.
It seems like the Hypertech graph shows one thing and that is to convince you to buy their crap programmer that doesn't provide any gains unless you own a Diesel truck. Hypertech also doesn't say which Dyno they used. Their numbers sound very close to the shop that dynoed an H2 with only the rear wheel rollers which is not going to be accurate.
The numbers don't seem off especially when you consider the drivetrain loss on an AWD vehicle that really doesn't have that much power to begin with.
At any rate, LAPD does have a good reputation in the Corvette community and does seem to do a good job in tuning.
Bottom line is that someone over at LAPD took the time to speak with me and help me out with questions that I had and it doesn't make sense to pretty much bash them when they have an overall great reputation.
Just something to think about and always remember there is always two sides to every story.
