Got tuned this morning

[Night Shifter]

your headlights have taken a beating the time your car was down huh?

lol theyve been pretty nasty for a while..i can never bring myself to buy new ones cause everytime i get the money for them i just buy something for performance..i got a little cash for my b day today so i think im finally gonna get new ones....

something got on them while it was sitting out of the shop..looked almost like someone poured a bucket of rust on them even though nothing was around my car...i have no idea what it was from

Car sounds good!

Don't get too discouraged by the #'s, the dyno is just a tuning tool anyway. Once you get it on the track, your mph will show what kind of power your making.

thanks! actually it felt pretty good on the drive home today...still having issues with the car dieing when i first start it up but after that its all good to go...cant wait till i get to co back for the fine tuning and on a dyno thats actually working

i need new rims and tires lol

haha, i feel ya man. Ive been wanted to buy the tinted taillights from AM for 130 bucks....i always find something else to buy with my money....

 

[Night Shifter]

stark, did you run the 13.18 with the stock rims and 275's?

 

[hotstang_46]

Those numbers aren't that crazy.... I was about that with mods similair to yours once upon a time

 

[rispoli_23]

i dont think those numbers are that bad bro

 

[35thstang99]

i thought my numbers were low too, i just got my car back over the weekend did lts and hi tech stage 2s and my numbers came out to 288 hp and 277 tq before theres mods i made 260 and 280 both tunes were done on the same dyno(mustangdyno) by the same guy.

 

[scupking]

I think scup is using stock heads, and block as well you should be well over 300 with all your mods

You are correct I have the stock heads, valve springs and block. My numbers of 293RWHP and 310RWTQ was on a mustang dyno. My tuner said if I was on a dyno jet I would be closer to 310rwhp. Also my tune is for 93 oct. His numbers of 273rwhp and 299rwtq seems very low. I was making 275rwhp with the stock headers, MRT catted H and the Hitech stage IIs before I went with the Mac LTs and VRS catted X.

Yea I think everyone missed the part where he said he has the aluminater block with ported heads and around 10.1 compression and long tubes. Compression only with stock heads, shorty headers and stock cams I made 277hp so I would say he should be above that with ported heads and cams

 

[Midnight2V]

I would do a compression check. Something doesn't seem right. I'm not of fan of hitech and I don't think their stage 2's are ideal on ported heads, but even still...something isn't right.

the other day i remembered i have that damn doorman intake manifold on my car...maybe thats my problem i doubt its making me lose a full 30hp but im sure its part of my hp loss..

as for a compression test, this thing is perfect..im 100% sure of that...maybe they really dont flow well with ported heads...i just cant see them losing power from it
