Before and after on the same dyno is about the best you can do to know what your mods gave you, no more no less. Run it at the 1/4 mile if you wanna know how much power it really makes. |

I was underwhelmed at the "Outstanding bang for the buck" statement at 'just' 380whp. $9,000 for @ 80whp? That said, I know how quickly the value can increase. It is proportional to the boost PSI .... Coop

The thing with mustang dyno's is it depends on how the operator calibrates the dyno. I know of two in the North East that read high. Dyno Jet's are different there calibrated from the factory.

1/4 mile trap speed will tell the tale where power is concerned. Doesn't matter if you spin off the line or whatever, the MPH will still be right in the ball park. With street tires my Challenger spins like mad and I have to avoid boost until 3rd gear. I'll run 12s at 123-125MPH. With drag radials I get traction and get in to the boost right out of the gate. My ETs drop to mid 11s, but MPH is still 123-125. |

I consider myself pretty lucky as my stock clutch is holding up just fine for where my power is right now. Any more though and it wouldn't last long.
Blackonorange, glad your car is running better and welcome to the boosted club.

Yes your lucky my stock clutch was slipping at high rpms when I was racing . My car only had 3500 miles at the time I could get only 2-3 good runs before it got hot and would slip .
