I dont mean to be a buzz kill but you need to come to a fork in the road, One fork leads to 15-20k of supporting products to make 800+ hp and One fork leads to another 1k and 550hp. If your musting is a car you depend on dont pick the 800hp road its more of a hobbiest car then. and to be honest there is not a ton of differance b/t the two power numbers when your on the street. If I were to do it all over again I would have baught someone elses project that had all the money dumped into it. Thats why you see some supped up stangs going for 20k b/c people like me and XP (and others) know what it takes to get up there from experiance.

Mustangs are like Women, the Hoter, the Wetter and the More wild they are. The more money they cost you.

Good luck with making your machine what you want.

Well this car is a project and has came ALONG WAY since I bought it 4 years ago as a BONE STOCK mustang. This isnt a DD car I am wanting to make this car as fast as I possibly can on the drag strip but then change the tires to a good setup street tire and run on the street. If I can get 650 rwhp I would be satisfied with that

pmas doesnt necessarily recalibrate for 60# injectors instead they remap the scalars and how the voltage out put should be. It may be able to read 1k hp but it will be restriction in the intake system long before it ever reaches that.

depending on which pmas meter it is they dont recalibrate them at all they are designed to out put a certain voltage level at a certain "weight" of air which is called the transfer function. That is dialed in by the tuning software used on the car.

True, that is how the meters works, and although they are a restriction due to the size at that power level they will work. For instance they have to be on a NMRA Renegade set-up, whether they are truly used or not is up to the tuner.... I am not sure how much his tuner will be able to do with a peged meter in the SCT chip software with the transfer function, unless they use a Diablo MAFia to trick it even further.

I actually would like to try one of the new elec units that AFM sells, I hear they are very nice and accurate.

PMAS charged me $100 to recalibrate my meter to use 42"s
