Whats your setup exactly? 715rw on a 3.6 Si sounds high.
I thought so too. Made 690 previously, then 715 with the blowerguard (two different dynos though). BTR SC cam, long tubes, dual nozzle meth with 100% methanol. I'm not sure why they emailed me the graph in MPH instead of RPM, or why the axis are set so weird, but:
LS3. Was making 5 with the filter on and 6 with a blowerguard. I was expecting ~10. I was concerned but the car also made 700+ so I wasn't sure what to make of it.
That much power on a 3.6" pulley sounds iffy to me also, but it at least makes a little more sense if the boost # is wrong and it has a blower cam, etc. i.e. not totally stock like I was thinking.

I make 747rwhp on a 3.6" pulley at 10.5 psi. It's a TI trim blower and BTR stage 2 cam though.
Oh yeah, with my current stock fuel pump I wouldn't consider not running meth. I do intend to keep the meth when I move to a Fore triple pump system.
And for reference to others asking, I daily drive mine pretty hard. I go through about a gallon of meth every couple weeks.

optimal performance is typically found around 20-30% water, and its safer
methanol raises octane but does nothing for cooling the components inside the engine (piston/head regions)
If the intention is 'safety' then water is absolutely integral and kind of the main point of spraying in the first place.
In other words, you can raise octane any number of ways (C16 leaded racing fuel, methanol, toluene, ethanol, octane boosters) but the only thing that actually cools down an engine's internals (significant reduction in EGT) is the water spray component.
Water injection started as water injection (aircraft) which allowed increased boost pressure (lower temperature when injecting water). Thats how the whole thing started in the first place. It wasn't the methanol or fuel component, people just added that as an afterthought to raise the octane in the same stroke since it takes very little water to have a great effect, there was plenty of headroom leftover in typical pumps/nozzles, and methanol happens to be miscible with H2O.
