You really can't see that phone taken picture, but they are sending me a copy in my email (supposedly)-

I needed a new computer all together, and a new mass air meter from ford - that was the causing of all my bucking and sputtering and horrible idle problems -

RESULTS -

Max Power - 306.9 RWHP
Max Torque - 327 lb/ft

the car runs ridiculously better - and when i shift into second hard, the wheels just hop all around -

My Combo is in my signiture - my A/F Ratio was around 12:1 -

I know ppl love reading dyno results - it cost me $1242.73 all together :(
 
So, my torque climbs all the way to the point they cut the car off on the dyno - n when i open the car up on the road, my power range is right where the torque starts movin - 3800 - does this mean my power range is 38 - 65?? If i rev it up to 65 do you think i'll blow my engine? 65 is sooo ****in loud that i get scared lol
 
The stock rev limit is set at 6250. If you used mostly stock rebuild parts on the bottom end I'd be shifting at or slightly below that limit. (to be on the safe side you know)

How is it with the e-cam and driving around town?
 
thats pretty good advice i guess lol the ecam is sweet for drivin around town, it's not bad at all - the lift isn't THAT big to make it horrible lol - however, the spintech prostreets for around town.... you wanna get noticed? get spintech lol
 
I wasn't paying 1200 for the dyno tune, i was paying 1200 to get my car to run right - it was undrivable until it left there, that is how i justify my major debt lol - now the car can be daily driven, and even raced from time to time - the price for the dyno tune n chip was initially 625, they ran into a few problems, i needed a new ford computer, mass air meter, bull**** like that, it's all on the receipt i just odn thave it w/ me right now - but nah i think its the torque that keeps climbin on there man - isn't the torque the "pull" that you feel? well i feel it pullin way up into the R's
 
Not sure if you have a stock tach or not, but with stock tach when you get past about 5000 rpm it starts to go way off. When I got my car dyno tuned, I watched the stock tach compared to the digital computer that was connected to the spark plugs wires and my stock tach was way off. My stock tach read like 400-500 rpm higher than what it was. It was close up until about 5000 rpm. Thats when I decided to buy an aftermarket tach. Just something you might want to keep in mind for when your trying to figure out what your best rpm shift point should be comparing it to the dyno chart.

not trying to show you up or anything but I figured I would show my combo and dyno sheet too:

Your torque curve is the one that peaks in the middle and crosses the horsepower curve at 5252rpms. Torque is a measurement of twisting force while horsepower is a measurement of work done and includes time.
You are correct that torque is the "pull" that you feel. Horsepower is simply only a calculation of torque therefore is always there even in the higher rpms like you stated.

I hope I confused you with this. :nice:

NICE #'s!!!!!!
 
thanks - i got the prostreets from ebay - there was a guy selling them he had a lottt of them - don't type in mustang, just type in spintech mufflers or spintech, n see wat comes up, they don't have to be for a stang - mine aren't specific to msutangs - but they are awesomeness- my car is a complete delight to drive now - i had it out all yesterday, im gonna get so many tickets this summer... : ( - yea i didn't think i was gonna make those #'s w/ the a/c still hooked up n whatnot, but im glad i broke into 300 finally - and you can defffff feel it lol

K.C. how come your air fuel ratio is all over the place like that? j/c did u have a chip burnt?

yea it was a Superchips chip that was burnt while on the dyno. I think it was off some at the begining just because he didn't fully flatten the fuel curve under 3K rpm as long as it was below 12.5. When it got to about 5600 RPM my 36lb injectors started maxing out or it could've been the fuel pump but both of us were not real sure on that. He tried rich out the end as much as possible but it didnt make a difference because it was a hardware restriction. I set the rev limiter to 5600 and was done with it.
