Your 951 was not even close to stock HP.

My car is 2,741 lbs without my fat butt in it. When I had it corner balanced I had 1/3 tank of gas in it.

If I see 235 HP at the dyno I will be astonished. I will be surprised to see 220.
you may not see it at the dyno, but that is HP at the wheels. you have to figure that ~25% (???) is being eaten up in mechanical loss.

i would bet that my 951 is getting about 270hp at the crank, which translates to about 200 at the wheels, which is what the dyno measures.
