Default Is This A Good Number

Is 499 hp on a mustang dyno a good number and what do you think it be on a dyno jet? 10 to 15% more right?

The tuner said that on the avrage his Mustang is 13 to 14% less than a Dynojet basesd on the pulls for the last two years. He maybe wrong but I have spoken with other people who have used his and one of the other 3 in town and it was around 13%

These are the LQ9 heads. LSX90 intake, williams Tb, electric water pump, kooks, 3" off road pipe, exedy twin disc clutch, 42 lb inj, ractronic fuel pump, 180 shot nxl. I think that the 315 drag radials are hurting me right?. Still only have 24 degres timing and 12.1 AFR. will put back on the dyno in a week or two when I have time. Thanks
