Well after a great break in period + some warm up pulls I managed to make 282whp and 241wtq three times in a row. Talk about consistency!!!!

Will post graphs later...

DynoJet, started with a 271whp run then ended with 3x 282whp runs...I was happy with that as a base. I'll now have a good base for when all my stuff arrives in ~2weeks.

...and 5th gear was used.

I'll try and get the graphs up tonight if not definitly tomorrow morning.

Cool! Yeah 282 isn't bad at all for stock. Not bad at all.

With some rough conversions that puts you in the 260's on a Dyno Dynamics which would be a great result. Good luck with the mods!

Very nice numbers.

I am going to have access to a Mustang Dyno sometime next week and will be seeing what I am pushing with my 7AT base before I start adding mods. How does a Mustang Dyno compare with a DynoJet or Dyno Dynamics?

It should read less than the DynoJet and higher than the Dyno Dynamics. Low 270's maybe?

The dyno dynamics is going to read like 260WHP. (between 250 and 260)

We did our runs I think in 4th. Doesn't make much of a difference
