Does 463 WHP on a Mustang Dyno sound high for my mods? Picked the car up last week.

I noticed on mustang dynos if you put in the incorrect weight of your car, you can really skew your numbers.

It's a great color. I know that I like the car, and I haven't even seen it. I wouldn't be concerned about the claimed power. You know what parts were in it up front and that's all that really matters. That cam can be made to drive like stock as well.

this is true, plus with that combo the car should have power everywhere, work very well and wont be some dynoqueen.

With the exact same cam as you have, and the patriot stage 2 LS6 heads (I think they call them stage two can't remember now) LS6 intake, full bolt ons. We dynoed 456whp in my friends M6 Z28.
That was on a Mustang dyno as well.

I would expect 420-425rwhp on our Mustang dyno with your combination. It's still not bad.

I know there is some LS2 GTOs cam only pushing around 475rwhp FYI. Without knowing cam spec its hard to take a good guess..

The car put down 428 WHP and 408 WTQ on a DynoJet today. The car is running a a/f of 11.4 to 1. He says that I need a tune. He said I can pick up some power from a good tune.

That's really fat for an NA setup. That's around where we have set the AFR on my blower cars. Yes, you should gain some power from a good SAFE tune that leans it out. Experiment on the dyno with fuel and timing curves. If you can get it into the high 12.x to 1 AFR without knock you should gain power, but make sure the tuner knows what he is doing.

Good choice there,,,Mike knows his *****! Get the afr leaned out to 12.8 or so and the total timing to around 28* and you'll pick up some power.
My guess is around 438rwhp. Good luck and keep us posted.
