Time to Dyno

  • Sponsors (?)


Anyone have any guesstimates as to what I should see rwhp with my mods when I dyno saturday? I asked for a minimum of 450rwhp from JDM when I sent in the specs for my tune.

2005 Black Ford Mustang GT

Mods: Saleen S/C , w/Saleen CAI,90mm Lightning MAF, 39# cobra inj, JDM xcal2 tune-92oct, 3.4" 9.5psi,Gates Belt, Prothane Bullet motor mounts, Autometer Cobalt Gauges:Boost&A/F, Autometer Pillar Gauge Pod , FR blk valve covers. SLP LM, FR 4.10 gears, FR Susp, Midwest Mirror inserts, BFG KDWS 255-50-ZR17.
 
Is it only you thats going? I went this past sat but didnt get any numbers. I'd like to tag along if able. How much were you quoted? I'm just wanting the numbers, no tuning for now. Would really like to know what I'm putting down w/ my 150 shot on 100 octane. plmk:flag: :nice:

The trap speed will give an accurate indicator of how much power you are actually making and using.

yeah -I know - my biggest reason to dyno is to see the A/F ratio is good. I have the gauge but I want to be sure. Added benefit is hp numbers.
Since I am not experienced running down a track I guess my biggest concern is trashing the car, right now I dont have big fixit money available in the car toys fund after buying the saleen s/c with cash!

You won't break it, especially if you are running street tires. Taking it to a dyno gives you something to talk about. I never forgot an article I read in which a car was taken to dynos all over Cali -and the numbers were all over too. Dynos are good for tuning as long as you keep going back to the same dyno.
