Tuned and Dyno'd Today! Disappointed to say the least!
Couldn't agree with you more!

Don't get discouraged, though, just think of it as more of a challenge to get to your power goal.
Good luck,

Never dyno'd!

Looking at your mods, I don't see a problem.
MMC Brushed Aluminum Shift Knob...Bling
UKDM Badge......................................Bling
Perrin Shorty Antenna.......................Bling
Defi-D Boost Gauge...........................Monitor/Bling
Seibon Carbon Fiber Hood.................Bling
Blitz DTT DCII Turbo Timer..................Preference/Bling
Injen Intake.......................................? power adder
Injen Upper I/C Piping........................Bling...no real power
Helix 3" Downpipe..............................Power
Ultimate Racing 3" Testpipe...............Power
Helix 3" Catback.................................Power
Walbro 255lph Fuel pump..................Safety
Hallman Pro RX MBC...........................Power
That is 4 power mods and 3 that may add something after cam install, plus a Mustang will show low power anyway.
When Mark tuned mine with only a UTEC and Tanabe downpide he had to stop at 240hp because of clutch slip.

I bet if I did a pressure test on your car you would see leaks and if you are using the stock bpv that is leaking for sure under full load. Never mind though you keep bench racing.

Guys, if you are going to compare a DynoJet to a Mustang Dyno, you have to add 17 percent more. In your case 262 whp (Mustang Dyno) equals 306 whp Dynojet. And your Torque is 272 Mustang Dyno and that equals 318 Lbs.
That should make you feel better. You need to buy a Wide Band and install a tuning device on your car. Don't expect to rock the Dyno with the aid of just a flash. And at 19-20 psi you are not going to rock the Dyno either. 23+ psi and then you are talking. By the way, that red Evo that Dynowed 293 whp there with less mods was runing over 23 psi. There is your difference. Up your boost and you will make more power.
The AeroComp Dyno does not read that low. Is very accurate +/- 7 percent. That is not bad. I have compared the numbers from theirs to the Dyno at Central Florida Turbo. Both Dynos are very similar. May be you have some other issues to take care off. Boost leak could be one of them just like everyone else says. Still, not bad for the mods you have.
By the way guys, you can get over 300 whp on a Mustang Dyno without cams. I know someone who does..
