AMS 2.3L & FP red tuned evo8 rs....
Final numbers ended up being 472ft/lbs & 448whp on Dougs mustang dyno in Las Vegas. ambient temp was 80f at 2000 ft elevation.

Reese Tuning from San Diego flew in for the day to tune the car and did a great job. I am extremely happy with the AMS 2.3L & FP RED setup, plenty of wheel spinning power and great spool/torque!
We did about 20 or so pulls with a final road race simulation on dyno to make sure she will be ok for future track abuse. the FP4R's seemed to like -2 degrees on the exhaust cam.
Start up is as good as it gets on e85 & driveability is awsome. Car pulls hard
Here is the dyno sheet, Doug from dougs dyno power said the wavy curvy is from the stiff suspension/tire/chassis combo and that these numbers would equal to about 500awhp on a dynojet.
Seemed the dyno was loaded real well, so she should hold up good at the track!



I want to thank AMS performance for a truly awsome 2.3L short block... car sounded & ran great!
Suspension tuning up next!!

I don't know this MD but I would assume about 15% lower than a DJ?
