Not a Mustang, but my Gen 1 Lightning - I posted it here because this is where I go the most...
Took my turbo Lightning to the dyno today to get a baseline comparison with the old motor to compare with the new motor which will go in in a few weeks. It's a '94 daily driver with 143,000 and a totally stock motor, except for a roller cam and new valve springs - the heads have never been off. It has a mass air conversion on it and a LaSota Racing Custom tune - the tune is very conservative - very rich and only 17* of spark. I run 94 octane pump gas. The turbo is a PT64E with a LaSota Automotive custom turbo system on it.
Nothing spectacular, but more than I expected. With only 11# of boost it made 481/635. On the street it makes 12.5# of boost, so I'm sure it's over 500. I LOVE the torque - it explains why I get annoying wheelspin even at highway speeds when it gets into boost.
The new motor is basically a stock rebuild with forged pistons and H beam rods, stock crank, line honed and balanced. I'm sticking with rebuilt stock heads and intake on it, but we may up the boost to 14# if pump gas allows it - it will be lower CR. I don't get on here very often, so if anyone has questions, feel free to email me about it at [email protected]
