Excellent numbers. Especially for an engine originally rated at 90 crank hp.
Dynos are great tuning tools. Using one along with a wideband O2 sensor is
usually the best way to pick up hidden hp-- whether it be by A/F tweaks or
ignition/cam changes.
The only drawback is when you compare YOUR numbers to someone else's. Despite
the DIN,JIS,or SAE "correction factors" that many dynos automatically compute
before displaying a curve-- real world has it that not all dynos read the
same.
If the shop has a Dynojet-- ask them to save all your files to disc. Dynojet
has a REAL cool viewer which then allows you to thoroughly analyze results.
