Ah geez, my engine bay is sooo dirty. :( Guess that is the price to pay when you drive your car all day.
I know the guys who host Access Zero and we wanted to show off the two forced induction builds up front.

Forget cleaning it, you need a bigger engine bay and a V8. I know a nice Z06 Corvette for sale.

So for those of you who say "oh we can just add a 12psi pulley and it will even out" that is not the case. The motor wont last.

You are better off running 371whp at 5.5psi if that is what the car wants to do. I wouldn't push the stock block too far over 450whp on a dynojet on a car that will not be running race gas regularly.
371 on a mustang dyno is about 415-420 on a Dynojet, I guarantee thats what you're going to find. ( on a side note, stop rushing to find a dynojet because you think these numbers suck) The dynojet isnt going to make your car go faster or flow better. I know you want to see higher numbers..

FWIW...my advice would be to leave it as is and enjoy your car where its. Its safe, its making good power. Don't go risk something and waste more money just because you want to make people happy.

Amen to that, right on the money. Stop hunting for numbers and drive.

Actual dyno numbers are hocus pocus. They can be way out, and can vary due to numerous factors, and often operator. But they are a reliable method to check the success of your mods.

Before and after dynos using the same dyno is the best way to see what gains you have made. The total number can be way off but look at how much you gained and how you gained it.

Always try and use the same dyno for all your testing, change one thing at a time and this will help keep the margin of error as small as possible.

The butt dyno is what matters. :D

Chriz 07-25-2010 04:30 PM

hey dreamer what sizes are you using for your tires? Same as stock?

theDreamer 07-25-2010 05:02 PM

No, I put 275 up front and 305 on the rear, the maximum you can get on the stock sport wheels.

This is what I'm doing for my next set most likely.

Chriz 07-25-2010 06:24 PM
