Not to piss anyone off but the barometer that day was 30.1 its plugged into the auto correction as 29.29 so it will add HP. I don't know why it is on the dyno sheet that way. Look at the weather history and check yourself.

If it was 30.1 actual at dyno time, then the dyno computer would actually be correcting (power) down for air pressure.The standard is lower at 29.29 But, heat, humidity, etc, could, and did, raise the correction back up.
Lower elevation, more air pressure, more power.
Higher elevation, less air pressure, less power.
Given the same heat, humidity, etc,etc
I've raced and dyno'd in weather many times below the SAE J607 standard numbers. 1200ft below sea level conditions once. Mine shaft air. Many people broke schit. LOL.
