Nils, I am so happy to see your car is coming back together for action! Good call on circirc. the DV
(edit- nevermind, forgot you're on Fcon V)
...besides that fact that just about anyone can track your location and every move with freeware. Not trying to make you paranoid, just saying. It's the most hack-prone phone ever, for real.

#2.. track me all u want!.. u'll be bored!!

Sorry, I should have read more carefully. I guess Magic Hat's Spring Seasonal brew is affecting me.
In that case, I am curious, have you considered Speed density of the stock ECU? The results so far seem very good and reliable.

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!!

Excellent numbers and powerband. Look at that torque climb! 2.3 + E85 Proves once again to be a winning combination for early spool and torque, especially with a Red holding decent power to redline.
Man that is a crap ton of torque, but I'm surprised it's falling off so hard. Your setup is very close to mine and I run the same boost, same fuel, and reach peak torque at about the same RPM. But you have a difference of around 190 ft-lbs between peak and redline, where mine differs about 100 ft-lbs. But you are making 50 ft-lbs more at peak.
What sort of timing is your car running at peak and out the top? If I had to guess based on that torque curve it would be 4-6 degrees peak and 12 degrees out the top...
Regardless, it is getting it done at 28 psi which is a good boost level for tracking.
