Default What am i doing wrong with Datamaster Dyno

Horsepower looks right, but tq is obviously off on my stock LT4 (K&N, and free flowing exhaust)

They either both gotta be right or both gotta be wrong...

HP = (Torque * RPM) / Const

The const is either 5250, 5252, or 5254...I can never remember.

yeah, i know both are either right or wrong... it's 5252 btw. Spent some time trying to figure out the variables that the dyno applet wants, and i think we got it closer... Got 323 and 367 i believe. hp sounds a little high though... especially since i only got it up around 5k rpm.
