Here we go!
First of all I would like to say what a great job Joe at Dynospeed did. He really took the time to get my car running right. Great guy, great service, and I couldn't have put my car in better hands! Now for the numbers!
I'd have to say I was really disappointed... at first! My first pull was around 319 and couldn't understand why. Then we discovered two issues. My intercooler pump fuse had blown, so we were looking as a huge heat soaked blower. Fixed that, and then came the fuel pump! Someone please correct me if i'm wrong, but a SVT Focus fuel pump is rated for 400-425 rwhp! The pump was professionally installed yesterday, so there's no issue there. I PEGGED it out at 319! They had to install a Boost-a-pump to keep up with the air flow! I don't know of anyone who has had to use a boost-a-pump on their Saleen blower! Everyone said that the Focus would support the Saleen. If i'm wrong, say so! My best pull was 353hp and 373 tq, but the a/f was way lean. Joe fixed the problem and the car feels amazing strong now!!
This was done on a Dynojet and Joe informed me that if it had been done on a Mustang dyno, the numbers would have been higher. I don't know if the people that have seen around 400 had their car done on a mustang dyno or not! I honestly never looked. I'm not trying to add fuel to the fire on Dynojet vs. Mustang dyno. My numbers are what they are! The true test will be what numbers I will see when I take it to the track! If 344hp and 365tq is great for a Saleen on a Dynojet, please let me know! Air inlet temps ran from 138 to 148. There are two things I feel good about. That I maxed out a Focus fuel pump and the Tork Tech allowed me to see peak hp above 6000 rpm!

Yeah, I quoted myself! I was anxious... lol
well It seems like too much $ for too little improment. Dang! I was hope for you to be in the low 400's!
I might just save $ now for a 2.6H and a built short block.
dang it.
Still, now get cams, and the cobra fuel tank and you may need a Diablo MAFia and bump it a little over 400. Also, what is the altittude and temp of the dyno? and if the car's intercooler pump cause alot of heat soak on the first run, was it cool before the second pull? man you should had take some dry ice and put it in the heat exchanger resivor before dynoing! lol
Still that's a great dynosheet! seems like they put their hard work into your car.
