But look at the grach... he basically tops out and holds the HP from 3600 to 5000 RPM.

I vote fuel issue (pump, pressure, injectors, something)...

was a wideband used during the pulls? if so, how did the fuel curve look? my vote is a fuel issue as well.

Yup. Used to be you could take off the intake silencer, set the timing to 13 deg, put in some 3.73's and rule the street. Now a Camry comes with more hp than our early Stangs. Big time !

I drove a 2002 TA with the t56, slp lid, and k&n last weekend. It was crazy. I had an 88 z28 that I modded bigtime and a 94z28 auto and neither even compared to the 2002. It was very nice.

not to jack this thread or anything...

Grady, are you still running stock TB and MAF? I thought you upgraded a while ago?

No Sir

I have been running a 65mm Ford tb and 80mm ProM shorty for quite some time now.

It starts to pull harder from mid range and the gain just gets better & better all the way to redline

however .............

I have no hard data on the gains from the two items
so
I feel the sig should stay as is

It is my hope it could be of some help to others who might expect big gains from tb & maf upgrades
or
think they are necessary items to do in the early stages of modding their Stangs.

Maybe in the fall when the temps come down

I can't brag about it on these boards due to no hard data
then again
it don't make me loose any sleep at night either

I know I've gone over to the other side of 300
At least 10 but I don't feel any more than 20

My GT made 210 rwhp with the stock intake, stock headers, CAI, O/R H pipe, Flows, 14* initial timing, 327 gears and five speed. This was on a Mustang dyno. I'll bet after a good tune up your numbers will go up.

I also would throw a new coil on just for S&G's. They only cost about 14$ and it's cheap insurance. I had a bad 3000rpm cutoff a long time ago and went through everything-dizzy sensor/pip, maf, o2's, ECT, ACT and finally the coil. Fixed it right up!

that could very well be the root of your problems right there. you havent done it in 2 years and there is no telling when the previous owner did it if at all. the ford racing wires are fine, they just take a little work to trim them down to size (they come way too long). toss in a new fuel filter, plugs, wires, and a new cap and rotor and see how she runs after that. also, what is your timing set at? retarded timing could also be part of the issue.
