Mustang Dyno Results!

Sorry for the poor quality, my DSLR died and i had to use my iphone.




Ambient temps were low to mid 70s, and we are fairly close to sea level. Mods are Stillen CBE, Berk HFC, and Gen 3 intakes with stock tune. COBB AP will be ordered this month, and back on for another dyno session. Hopefully i can squeak out a few more HP as it seems others with similar setups hit 310whp on a Mustang with a tune. Also I hope to bring my TQ number up as it is fairly low, and fix any AFR issues.

Friends at the shop were asking about open source tuning, as they suggested direct meth injection! If anyone knows if this is being done yet please let me know! Im pretty sure the GTR crowd is open source tuning.

seems the only car in the shop i was able to best hp wise was the 2010 SC Audi S4 at 285awhp.. All the older turbo S4's are 500-600awhp. Told him he could drive it around the block if he wanted, and he replied... "not sure if i can handle the power!" hah

In fact i just had a really hard run over the mountains and back for a Tom Petty concert this last weekend before my dyno run. Ill take er slow until i get my AP.

In case anyone wants to know, I averaged 24.5 MPG from San Antonio to Seattle. Made it from Vegas to Seattle in 1 day! I was trying to see if i could get decent MPG.
