Is this VD right?

That's exactly how my graphs looked when my clutch started going bad. I didn't really feel it at first. The graphs were my first indication and it steadily got worse over the next few weeks. I think VD is fine. I'm definitely putting money on the clutch.

Got the new VD installed, still shows very high numbers. Even on mustang Dyno setting it shows 458whp (or around that) and still around 600 on Dyno jet setting

I know my car isn't putting down 600 on a Dyno jet, so my only guess is the clutch is slipping during acceleration which is throwing the vd off.

Judging by your graphs I would say your clutch it done. I hope you added some fuel to it. It is way to lean.

I would have to agree on clutch slipping also as the torque initially hits with the black...

Apart from the clutch giving out, I would strongly consider upgrading the pump soon...not sure how much far you plan to go on a single wally and E85.

^ I've taken a single modded wally w/1250's further. And he has 1450's, at 28psi of boost so fuel pressure is only 71 psi. He just needs to adjust the fuel map, as it still has some left in it

I am planning to go to a double pumper soon, I eventually plan for a built br 2.3. So will need it sooner or later any ways.

VDR is a great tool for tuning. I beleive the most accurate way to see HP is on a real dyno.

I think everyone would agree

The VD program is free and not everyone has immediate access to a dyno and/or wants to pay to be strapped down.

I have been on a real Dyno, but wanted to compare my virtual Dyno on my old set up vs my new set up on the vd. But yeah, only logical explanation to these overly high numbers seem to point to a slipping clutch.
