I tried to have my truck dyno'd but with a tach signal they couldnt do it. so what I did was time myself from 2000rpms in 5th gear and go WOT and see how long it took to accelerate to 2500 rpms. I was able to knock about 3.4 sec off my time.
You can get a tach that reads a piece of magnetic tape stuck to the flywheel pulley.

you could easily make your own dyno, but it would require the engine be out of the truck.maybe i'll make one this summer.............. i feel you can get 200 hp without water, i'm running 14 psi boost and 9 psi is stock, so that should be 50 hp more plus 140 at stock fuel setting = 190
