whp estimation 2.3 35r aem or stock ecu?

the time has come for me to finally have my new beast tuned.

I'm taking guesses on what i should be able to make power wise, on a mustang dyno.

current setup

2.3 cp 9.0:1, ibeams turbo tuff, lw billet crank
gsc s3
double pumpers 255lph
id2000
hta3586r .82 vbands

edit - 93 octane

i would prefer to keep stock ecu but some people are saying i NEED aem in order to go further than what my last engine made.

stock ecu or aem, and whats my est whp? give me your inputs please!

The ecu wont hold any power back as such.
But an aftermarket ecu will have more inputs and outputs so you can add more sensors which can help save your engine.

Depending on how hard you plan on leaning on the 3586 it could go 650+hp

I would expect to see somewhere in the 650-700whp range on kill.

What fuel?

The stock ECU is fine for that kind of power (speed density). You can go AEM, it has more failsafes and options. It's personal preference. I have ran both in my car and multiple customer cars and I enjoy them both in different ways. Although the AEM is pretty sweet when you use all of it's functions.

AEM makes some pretty good ECU's the Infinity is amazing. However most people do perfect on there stock ECU. I would find out what your tuner prefers to use. If your tuner is the bomb at stock ECU then stay stock ecu, if he is awesome with AEM's go AEM.

An ECU is only as good as the tune on it.


Also AEM Series 2 and Infinity both fully support flex fuel.

600 on 92 is easy with that turbo, 800ish on E85...see above link rather than guesses.

Mustang dyno? Maybe on a dynojet but I don't see the HTA86 making 800 on a Mustang, no way.

MAYBE 500 pump gas Mustang Dyno.

What Mustang? What does it read on a stock car? As many properly calibrated Mustangs out there I can show you a Mustang that reads like our dynojet.

I prefer Aem over stock ecu. It's easier to tune on the fly.

Who is tuning your car?

Sorry but i don't think you stated if the car is going to be used a DD or Track Only?

IF track only, then go with the AEM
IF DD and you need it to pass Emission, Keep Stock ECU.

I sold my AEM Because i needed my Car to pass Emissions in order to get stickers

its strictly a street driven car, very rarely on occasion. hence is super low mileage of 27k.. i made 500whp(2.0) on my last engine on the same dyne with a smaller turbo and hot side.

You have a solid point there, Mustang Dyno is easily manipulated
