Alright today, I went to ABC Chassis Dyno and I got 186 HP @ 4750 rpm and 243.3 tq @3750 rpm. I will host up the sheet in a minute, can't find my phone. Basically it was a baseline for when I start some major modding. The mods are as follows: 2.5 " flows, 2.5 " o/r h pipe, short shifter, gears, and an electric fan. Plus I didn't ice the intake and it was hot and I had been driving it all today.
 
im sure you could have squeezed more out of it maybe with AFPR and some timing adjustments. My base line when i first got into the mustang thing was very similar to yours but after some tweeking we worked it out to 205hp @ 5200 and somthing like 270ftlb. with exhaust and some tune. Its amazing to think that those numbers came from my car and i thought it was BADDASS! back in the day LOL. now im unimpressed by my 300 horse Bucket.
 
true that but I think the coolest part of the day when I was talking to the dyno guys was when I was leaving, they are in an industrial park and told me to go out to the cul de sac and do some donuts, it was tight. I shoulda got a video.
 
For them to tweel the timing and fuel pressure, it was going to be an extra 50 bucks. Oh and the torque reading may not be correct, something happened when they ran it for 5 hours yes. and it broke something so they had to work on it for a good 1/2 hour to get it to even get a reading.
 
im buying one piece at a time. i decide 2 weeks ago i was going to do a h/c/i and i already have the cam and im looking at some pushrods at the moment. im just doing everything one ata time and then when i got it all then its all going on at once:D im figured to be done buying in the next 2 months or so
