Haha, I saw that. I got on tape the tail end of the duct getting blown out. It kind of sounded like he let off a little early, but what do diesels rev to? They make a shitton more torque than hp from what I understand...

That's kind of strange that they couldn't get a tq reading though, that's what the dyno measures (and hp calc'd from tq). Do you mean you couldn't get an RPM reading? At least they could have recorded the tq/hp vs. time.
