Thanks, OD This is a low reading Mustang dyno. We will see what it pulls on a dynojet in a few weeks.

I see the 300 number being really possible in January. If you can get the BC to balance out to 12 psi up top you will be on a roll.

Interesting... However I do believe you should be up over 270 atleast .

Looks good nonetheless.

Best run of the day was 269.9 HP and 223 TQ (I think). Boost peaked at 12psi and dropped to 9.4. Surgeline is sending the pdf files of the runs in couple of days. I took a picture with my camera of of one of the graphs so everyone can check it out.

Good job again pdxhak.

if you guys wanted a low reading mustang dyno... should've been there in 2008 when we first went at it and NA 6-ports made 130-140 whp and turbos barely hit 200...

I really feel left out of the Overlord thread, since I am an onlooker. So, I will poke fun at all you boosted noobs as much as I can. lol

The January dynojet run, will include pdxhak, dondo, dannobre, myself, and a few others. I need to sort out my clutch issue first. Wish us luck.

After Driving Brettus' car in New Zealand I now think the turbo route is the next serious mod. to consider. I just need to nail down with my dealer if my engine with 10K miles is truly down on compression or if I just didn't know how to use Nemisis' compression teser.

Hate to be a party pooper but I still see issues with the setup . It didn't make the expected power at 5psi in the first run and is still way down on what it should be at this boost level .

For a comparison check this thread .

Watching bench racing from different dyno's makes me LOL....

Compare volts on the MAF (everyone have a 3.5 OD housing?), that would actually be somewhat more realistic between RX8's.

With that boost profile - 310 -320 .

Your earlier dyno was hinting that you would get the posted numbers at higher boost .
