Good numbers, but I think the dyno is reading high on this car(400rwtq@3400!!)...not taking down anything from OP or product from TSP by the way. Run it at the track and tell us what happens. Still kick *** numbers though...

Nice numbers, OP! Get that thing to the track so we can see how it does!

The MS3/stg 2.5 heads/cam combo continues to impress me. Congrats on some killer number and I'm sure the nitrous numbers are going to be absolutely nasty (in a good way )

Regardless of what the dyno says, I bet the car goes at least 120mph in the 1/4 if it's full weight and will be well beyond 130mph on a 150 shot. These MS3/5.3 stg 2.5 cars are NO JOKE.

Would 400 trq at 3500 rpm do? Maybe another happy dyno? Can't it really be done?
or can it?

it can be done. I think the MS4 with those heads would be an even better looking graph for torque.

Congrats! Unless you're racing to put food on the table, the buttometer is the best measuring device. If it makes you pucker and smile, you've done it right.

Hi Ed, Welcome back.

I was refering to a few poeple jumping saying that this amount of trq could not be harnessed by a 346. (no reference to the MS3)
I have seen it on a few combos and various dynos. That post is just 1 exemple.
Oh guess what, it is a reverse split cam

Clearing some things up here:

I have a TSP setup on my car and am extremely happy with it.

I don't care too much for the "hardcore" crowd, but they are spot on. That power from that setup is extremely unlikely, especially the laughable torque numbers. Jon, Jason, Matt at TSP - seriously, you must admit those numbers are not seen in your house from that combo! C'mon!

Finally, FBC lost their shop and dyno and are using a local ex Pro 5.0 guys Dynocom, that is WAAAAAAAAAAY off. My car has been on that dyno and another local Mustang dyno. I saw a stock 2003 Mustang GT put down 270rwhp on that Dynocom.

To the OP, I don't doubt that the car runs strong, but you may want to consider putting it on another dyno before posting the power numbers. Know that the results you have are far inflated compared to pretty much everyone else.

Mark,

I *think* the boyz were talking about *this* combination touting 400TQ at 3400 RPM as being a little implausible with the list of parts... no more, no less...

I love how a few people jump on the thread to turn it to crap



Every car is different.I think your #'s look fine and how it feels is the most important.

In that case I concur.

The numbers do look high but what matters is how it runs at the track......He is going to be very disappointed in his times if he thinks his car really has that kind of power. I would take it to a creatable dyno. At least then he wont be surprised when it runs slower then expected.....

try scanning the dyno sheet in black and white. My scanner won't pick up my graphs in color either, but B&w it works fine!

crazy good numbers though, makes me feel better about my 6.0 which hasnt been to the dyno yet

How it feels is most important? since when

I would think more importantly is how the car actually performs not just how it feels.

Nice numbers. Usually dont see the tq that high. Post up when you get some numbers with an open cutout.

Isn't feel and perform the same thing?

Should I put my ***** on the ground so you can step on them too?

No not really, I hear people say all the time well it "feels" better, or it "feels" faster. Until you actually test it out at a dyno or a track to see how it "performs" then you really have no idea.

I highly doubt you could get your ***** on the ground w/o stretching them a bit, but if thats what your into then ill give it a shot.

Hell ya how it feels is important! Hell that's the reason we built these things isn't it? I don't race professionally, hell I don't even race at all, I built this thing so that I could have some fun, and I think most people start modding for the same reason.
