The dyno curve is hard to see I may get a new print out if you see the fang tooth torque at the start...different from previous dyno where the pi intake choked out the 5600rs, is the vic jr efi and and upgrading to a sctba 2600 maf fitment for a clean airflow signal...

Im new to this and have bern trying hard to get peak numbers but have been told from folks like Jordan at mhs that my reduced expectation of 310 RWHP won't happen????
And it didn't I have been modyin my 2000gt vert for the oass 3 years...but in the end I always just wanted a strong street brawler and reliable mustang club cruiser!!! I HAVE that and will continue refining my setup tfs tw 185_38cc heads created an oil misting issue requiring a catch can...the pi intake with the tfs heads didn't have the oil misting isue???

282/295 to the wheels is nothing to sneeze at. You were expecting 310rwhp? Just confirming.

I don’t know much about 2v new edge GT motors, I guess I would say you might be on the low-ish end of a H/C/I setup, but again I’m not familiar with those engines. It is going through an automatic transmission correct? Those suck a little more power no?

Looking at your parts list - I may have missed it somewhere - what stall and gears are you running?

Next - power through an auto will always disappoint a bit. My built auto 2v only put down 408 on a mustang dyno but ran 11.45@119 with a 1.67 60 off the ft brake - stall and gears helped a ton (well plus boost).


Another car I built for a cousin - PI swapped 98. Small cms cams, stock pi heads. Accufab plenum - 3:73 gears put down 278 na and 378 on a 125 zex hit. It ran 11.70s at 115 or so. It had a lot of suspension and would yank the wheels and cut very low 1.5 60s.

See how it runs at the track and then decide if max HP vs HP/torque under the curve are more important.
