I threw my car on the dyno today. I put down 243hp/263tq on a mustang dyno. What do you guys think. I was hoping for a little more but I am still pretty happy.

Those numbers look pretty strong, considering your small smattering of mods and the fact that you were on a mustang dyno.

Considering the factory ratings for Mach 1 and GT are 35 HP apart and we almost have the same exact mods, I'd say their right on target.

Oops. I can't add. 45 HP difference. Still, I think their good. Probably alot hotter down there when you ran than the 60 or 70 degrees here.

That's a solid number for a Mustang dyno with your mods. Dynos can be very humbling and are NOT the final word in how your car will perform. To find out how it performs, take it to the track. I've seen cars with identical dyno numbers run .8 difference at the track -and I am not referring to one pass but many passes.
