10's on $5,000 ?

Not to harp on the dyno thing, but.......

Let’s say you put something together(no dyno test)and it’s slower than you “expected”.
What’s wrong with it?
Does it have enough power to get the job done or not?
Is the problem the motor or the car?

Btw, I’m not at all trying to convince you to dyno anything...... just illustrating the value of having data.
