SCT Tune / Dyno #2 Results

[2005RedGT]

With these mods:

1. Magnapack Cat Back Exhaust
2. MMR Intake
3. Steeda Underdrive Pullies
4. SCT Tune

I am able to get 270rwhp on a mustang dyno (about the same as 290rwhp on a DynoJet). This equates to about 350HP at the flywheel. Those 3 with the tune make a HUGE differnce. I can compound that with the 4.10 gears and the SCT tranny changes and I am in heaven.

Whats next ?
As soon as some valve train items, cams / springs , come out - that is my next item. Got to have the lope

So you went from 255 HP/266Ft-Lbs to 270hp. What did you gain in torque? you make no mention of it.

Very nice. We tuned an 05 today with the MMR intake and Magnaflow catback. We did everything in steps to see what each mod picked up. I'm working on the article now and it should be up by Monday. The results were pretty much as expected.

I forgot those reports/numbers. I had emailed the dyno specialist and request that information.

Great. I am very intrested in seeing that.

Ken dynoed mine (wife's) stock and it put down 255.4 STOCK on the first run. If you do the math: 255 (RWHP) / 300 (bhp - from Ford) you get 0.85 which should be about what the drivetrain loss would be. With that same figure (15% loss) the resulting 283 rwhp would equal 332.9 bhp.

edit: And for the person who dynoed in this thread, make sure you didn't take the HP you "gained" from the pullies into acount when determing engine HP; I shouldn't have to explain why a pulley doesn't add any HP to the engine.

Depends on how you look at it. Engine's are dyno'd from the factory with the front accessories in place, pullies are "recoverd" horsepower, and therefore recoverd hp, tranlates to "added hp to the rear wheels".
