DYNO graph of recent tuning session with Jacob's K03/K16 v2 aka "Tribrids"...
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/76654/ken_dyno_18lbs.jpg"></center><p>
In the lower left are the notes but it's pretty small to read, here's what is says:
DYNO NOTES
-18.65 PSI Max Boost
-92 octane
-5500 RPM Test
-3rd gear
-60% parasitic loss
The dip in graph is caused by an incorrect spark plug gap AKA "flameout". I have another pic in my poster of a lower boost dyno that is much smoother. Regapping the plugs tighter should take that hesitation away and allow me to run more boost.
All the logs are still at the Dyno and I need to pick them up, wasn't dynoing for power rather trying to tune the car so the parameters were all within a safe range for daily driving.
I will say that the Buehn Tribrids spool VERY quickly and easily hold 20 psi to redline (when I dont get the spark plug issue). I'm pretty happy with the performance!
Comments/questions welcome.

Not everyone uses a "dyno program". He's trying to be informative...
and not turn it into an ego contest. No one has really dyno'd that setup that I know of, and he's making steps to try and get more power out of it. Consider it like a baseline.

what plugs are we talking about here ? (almost forgot ..ko4/k16 "v2" = KO3/ko4/k16)
not bad..but the power band needs to be actually "custom tuned" to be a bit smoother good job !
