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.

Looks good nonetheless.

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 .
