Might be in the service manual?.......I can email it to you tonight if you dont have a copy, call and remind me at like 6 if you don't get it.

Guys, the weather this weekend also seems headed in the wrong direction. Are we still up for June 28th?

Ok, then lets be d1cks and say he only made about 340hp on a mustang dyno then. I understand that its the same tune, but most people get "dyno'd" on a dyno jet and therefore numbers normally are higher. Here is just a little video of my proving you guys wrong

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZXbk3o-xHg

hell without cams i made over 330whp/330lbs tq on buschurs dyno. I am told its a 23%/25% difference in power of a dynojet. that being said i would have made about 412+- whp on a dynojet. That does sound a little more realistic considering i did have traps to run 11's in the quarter mile in a full weight evo (12.1 @117mph)

What mods were on my car when i did them 1/4 mile runs.

Header back exhaust, intake, mbc, tune. (and a nice boost leak that nate found about a 3 days after my runs)





If you like, i will have nate print me out some graphs of his car, or have bryce bring them to the next meet.

If you are comparing these numbers to denny's numbers its an unfair comparison. Denny intentionally ask for a more drivable tune and did not want something extremely aggressive for his daily commutes. I am sure he can explain to you better what i mean..
Wow, sorry I missed this yesterday... Eric, all I have to add is my personal experience on dyno's you're questioning. I was also on a Mustang dyno last year and made something like 270 whp. (CBRD dyno, reads very very close to Buschurs) You are not even remotely close with your estimate of 23-25 % increase on a dynojet. Why do I say this? Because one month later I was on a dynojet. Guess what I made... 340 whp which is almost exactly 25% more... BUT... The differences were the following... Droped the cat for a test pipe, added O2 housing, 10.5 hotside, and ported manifold, and more aggressive tune and boost levels. How can you explain this? The differences are not as large as you think. Sure they're there, but not 25% differences, come on. Maybe 10%.

Brian , I am not sure what the link to that thread is proving.

I see the numbers and the turbo being used , it seems like alot of power on a green turbo for sure on a mustang. But it is backed up by mph at the track.

The 350whp and 120 traps are actually very beliveable from a mustang dyno. As My car on pump gas tune making 380whp would trap 122 mph. 30 more whp and 2 mph more is very close to truth.

I think that is what you were looking at right????

^ No Dan, forget the dyno, my bad... I may have confused you and myself, haha. I was just using that as a good example of someone with a green and meth still not even making 400 ponies on dyno's, that's all. That's perfectly in line with what Denny did on a similar setup. I just think 430 hp on a bolt on 9 is unattainable. Unless you consider a green a bolt-on. And even then it's still bleak.

*NEWS FLASH* *NEWS FLASH* *NEWS FLASH* *NEWS FLASH*

Every dyno will now be dropped in the bottom of the deepest part of the ocean, to lay side by side me with megatron and the other autobots. It will be illegal to speak of dyno's and if one is caught building one, or attempting to impersonate a butt-dyno that person will be forced to do auto crossing for the rest of their life where power is of no care!!!


That concludes our talks on dyno's for this week or for the rest Pittsburgh thread future. At least until i get on a dyno and get my car tuned.

I did not start this post to start an argument. I simply found equations and HARD evidence on how they actually work. Not how the tuners use them. I am not arguing with anyone anymore ... There are more variables to dynos then pregnancy. right day of the month, time, etc etc. temps, humidity, correction factors etc etc. For one, not all dyno's actually perform the same. Some dyna packs have recorded higher numbers than dyno jets. all depends on the brands.

mph is the true factor. take it to the track, run it down the track, be happy

that couldn't be further from the truth actually. power matters a good bit in autocross.
