BTW a buddy of mine went from this dyno to another dyno the following day and this dyno was 2hp off the other one. So I figure its not the dyno that is giving me the low numbers. (for being wrong anyway)

Personally, I want the low track #. Peak HP don't mean **** when you get drug by someone with less of it.

If the temps and humidity are different from your baseline test, you'll get different results on the dyno. But even if that was an extreme difference, I would have expected stronger gains than that.
If you can get a reading on your computer (freescan is for 94-95) not sure about 93s... but it may be possible you're getting knock retard. That's what I had on the dyno and it pulled 10* of timing out of the motor. Wasn't good... would be great if you can get knock readings.
