Damn, we have to wait till Thursday to see Dyno results? I wanted to see them last week.

I'm getting impatient as summer is almost over in Northern country.

Jtran Studios has a Mustang dyno.
If everything is in working order (long tubes are not causing problems) then I hope for just 400-420. Texas heat has been picking up and with a 40% chance of rain everyday it is causing it to be extremely humid.

400-420 on a mustang in such bad heat would be good numbers. My guess is that you're going to be closer to 390 if you are in fact hitting the intended 8psi.

So wait, you got custom tuned and have other stuff on the car, meaning this is not really a GTM CARB legal kit. I just hope you compare apples to apples when your results come in. Exciting times.

No, no custom tuning going on.
This is one of the first kits, and we ran into a slight problem with mine and the ECU freaking out with the first tune. Basically the car would not start, so we started from scratch and worked step by step to figure out what went wrong. So this is purely a canned map from GTM it just took some slight tweaking because of my ECU freaking out (which I might be because of a previous tune I had on the car).

That's confusing, how do you start from scratch and then call it a canned tune. You're saying the car wouldn't start with the GTM provided tune??

I understand if Sam is sending you the tune himself, but you are using a new, different tune... In texas im sure you could care less though.

From "scratch" means, adding one thing at a time.
Because my ECU was not playing nice with the tune we started to tear down the tune and add a piece at a time. This way if there was a problem we can isolate it, no custom tuning, nothing special. It was just a longer process of adding a tune, same tune, just in pieces.

I think he ment to say it was origanally was a canned tune. Sam sent out a tune that did not work with his ECM serial number for some reason. The car would not start, which is not a big problem. Baker sent out data to Sam and broke the tune up in 4-5 phases sending back and fourth data and now....BAM we have a perfectly running Supercharged Z. The correction is dead on, and tuned great along with idel temps. We will have 100% info when we hit the dyno and get A/F readings. I think it will be below 400whp as well RCZ, tommarow should be the day. I am hoping the LTH's do not need to come off of the car.

There should be no reason for the LTH to come off.
