Unhappy Tuned and Dyno'd Today! Disappointed to say the least!

Baseline Run with mods listed in signature:

Max Power: 234.4 @ 6250 RPM
Max Torque: 245.8 @ 4000 RPM

After Tune:

Max Power: 262.6 @ 7000 RPM
Max Torque: 270.8 @ 3750 RPM

Very dissapointed in the baseline run with my mods

Anyone know why I would have such a low baseline?

Get TurboTrix to flash your ECU, you'll be fine.

i think that's a very good dyno. THe gains are pretty good. Dyno numbers mean just that, just numbers. You have to look at the gains and how much "area" you picked up.

You also have to remember that the intake doesn't do anything and sometimes hurts your WHP until your car is tuned for it, then you see the 6-8HP gain. Those numbers are about right for what you have.

for an untuned car, that's not bad... ECU tuning is everything when it come to modding... You'll easily add 30-40WHP with a good tuner on those mods.

This was tuned by Mark from TurboTrix on a Mustang Dyno. Evos with less mods, were putting down 30+ more HP.

I'd definitely let him know and ask him what might be the problem... for a tuned car, those numbers are way low...

Already talked with him after the tune. He suggested a boost leak, and to try a different boost gauge. Im already using a Defi D gauge and I also have an electronic boost gauge in my Blitz, both are not indicating any leaks. I can figure out why my baseline dyno run would be so low with all my mods....
