Well today i made a trip to CBRD for Chad to tune my car, I just recently had a timing belt service and HKS 280 cams put in by LMS and they did a GREAT job! Well anyways Chad started tuning my car a was relizeing i wasnt getting enough fuel up top so we swapped out my stock fuel pump with a walboro 255. After that he was getting more fuel. As some of you might know CBRD does have a LOW reading Mustang dyno compared to most shops out there. But anyways Chad managed to get 300hp/280tq @26psi give or take a few HP because i dont have the chart with me right now. But today was really hot and humid also... i think it was 90+ outside. But chad noticed at high RPM some knock.. he thinks it could be a boost leak. Also a stock evo 8 put down 204HP on their dyno. So im going to check for a boost leak and maybe go back hoping for some improved numbers but i am happy right now as the car feels GREAT! Chad is a great guy and is a great tuner he knows his **** also i would like to thank Lonnie and Ray at LMS they are great guys and also know their way around the 4g63 and almost any car you put in their hands!Lonnie will even help me on his day off!!! But again thanks to both shops! My mod list as follows.....
--INVIDIA TBE
--HALLMAN MBC
--TURBO XS FRONT MOUNT I/C
--HKS 280 CAMS
--ARP HEADSTUDS
--K&N INTAKE
--ACT 6 PUCK CLUTCH
--WALBARO 255 FP

 

+100whp over stock, very nice! Congratulations

 

stock is really that low?!

 

on their dyno..

 

yup on a MD stock 8s get around 220 to 240. it all depends though in the end of the day the dyno is just a tuning tool and you maDE A GREAT gain

 

Evo 8 turbo what hotside?

 

Stock 03 hotside. I think they are a 9.8

 

We've had some 03/04's put down 19X on our mustang dyno but the norm is just a tad over 200.

OP: You are in great hands with Chad.

 

different dynos different numbers

 

Good numbers!

10.5 hotside didn't start coming out until '05...

 

we have seen 190 up to 218 i think is the highest...

glad to see you are happy.....

thanks again guys!

 

Congrats man!! 300 is no joke on CBRD's mustang dyno. I could only make 280hp with my stock 8 turd.

JasoN

 

lol but now your selling it. ..... hows the BBK i was thinking of getting one sometime this winter.... what did you put down with the bbk?

 

360/320 with BBK on 23psi

I think I'm going to keep it. Haven't driven it in a month and I sorely miss it
