As I always suggest: Put it on a dynojet.

Load bearing dynos, like Mustangs, will give inconsistent values from shop to shop, depending on how its calibrated.

Dynojets, on the other hand are far more consistent across shops as there is little to adjust.

Temp (and also humidity and air pressure) makes a HUGE difference; no correction factor can perfectly adjust for it either.

I agree and as others have stated Mustang Dyno is a heartbreaker -aka- kick in the d**k. I'll probably get a Dynojet done sometime in the near future, but I'm not worried about the numbers really. It would be nice to say my whp is xxx, but it really comes down to the tuner doing the tune on your car.

I'm thankful someone understands where I am coming from... thanks so much for taking the time to post these videos and links!

No problem and you are so very welcome. It was the very least that I could do for you.

You can also get a good idea by looking at the % gain from baseline. That should be highly consistent across types of dynos -- meaning, the absolute values won't matter, just the % delta ;)

Either way, nice set up on the car! I'm sure its a blast to drive :tup:

I didn't really think about that. I was looking at the difference, or the area under the curve.

Thanks and each time after the tune, the car felt even better. I'm not going to complain one bit and it is a blast to drive.

But if the tuner messed with the settings from one to the other it makes the baseline worthless. Unless you're talking about a baseline same day vs the last run done.
