Varies from season to season and month to month, but in the most nasty and humid summer months, it will be over 10%.

Low guess - 445
High guess - 577
Mean - 500.79 (24038/48)

Whoops, must have missed that.  I did write down every reply though so I could calculate the average.....must have been low on caffeine yesterday.  I'll edit the post.

There's a 132hp swing on guesses!

I'm surprised nobody guessed 0.  Just in case it explodes on the dyno. :o

So I'm slow & broke, what went wrong?

So using your local weather?  Time of Day?  Using the DA at Ohio Valley right now, I get 391 @ 6200

Your current DA is 1035, air we'd kill for here LOL

We are having a day or two of fall weather.  When I dynod a week or so ago the DA was about 5000.

I'll run it again with parameters closer to that - 5000 DA will knock the wind out of it for sure.
