dynojet tuning a turbo car
can this be done effectivly? I cant think of a mustang dyno in this area, and the shop I use only has a dynojet. from what i've read its really hard to spool up a turbo on a dynojet because there is no real load put on the engine. Can you tune a turbo motor on a dynojet or should i try and find a place with a mustang dyno?

You should try and find a place that can tune the car on an eddy-current dyno.
The mustang website has a dyno locator. You can try that, and you can also look on SuperFlo's website. I believe they also have a dyno locator although there is less likely of a chance finding one of those as they are significantly more expensive than mustang or dynojet.
Something else to consider, dynojet recently released and add on to their standard dyno so they can impose a load using an eddy-current setup.
FWIW the closest mustang dyno is 3 1/2 hrs from where I live .

You should be alright. Just work your way up in small increments, to be on the safe side

MM how come your seems to run all over the place. I always see you posting it ran a high ten and then low tens and the you have a 9 sec pass in your sig. Are you still messing with the tuning or something?
