If I understand this ----you have not taken the engine apart--you have only taken a compression check, so the plugs are out---what did they look like?
Were the plugs checked after the dyno? Compression? Does the car have boost and fuel pressure guages? Did the dyno setup have boost and fuel pressure monitering?
What fuel was the engine dynoed with?
What fuel is in the car?
With a new install there is a strong possiblity that crap from the fuel cans, tank, fuel lines entering the injectors
What are you using for a controller?

The HP numbers you are quoting are possible without a supercharger--was the blower added after the dyno run?

How much timing advance was being run?

Ten easy break-in miles---sometimes the leanest conditions with advanced timing occur with easy driving

If the engine was in such a tune to cause that much damage, it would of run very poorly on those 10 miles
