Did you do the same for your pre-upgrade trap speeds using the same methodology?
I don't see 680hp running only a 123 trap . I know realistically I don't have 700hp and my car is doing close to 130mph . I think it's the AUC of our cars that make them so fast and a lot of the dynos we have been seeing are very generous and often STD correction instead of the proper SAE .
