Default Was this a decent Dyno run?

I posted 325.15 rwhp at 5800rpm and 325.66 torque at 5700 rpm at Thunder Racings Dyno. That was about what I expected but I was wondering if I should have had more. Also, why is my torque peaking out at about the same time as my hp? Mods in sig

#'s seem a little low. With just a lid, LT's, duals my car dyno'ed 350hp/364tq. With just lid and Magnaflow muffler I put down 336hp/349tq. All these #'s are still with stock tuning. Is the Thunder Racing dyno a Mustang Dyno? Mine where all done on a Dyno Jet...SAE corrected!

I'd look into a cut-out but thats about it man. Dunno what to tell you other than the tune might be off ? Unless thunder did it... Ask them to look at your tune if they didnt. Clutch could be slipping as well... Torque seems odd peaking that high.

No, its a Dynojet and all numbers are SAE corrected. Well I have been throwing a code lately for a low emissions leak. However, the code was cleared when I ran the dyno. Also, I had a mail order tune done by Texas Speed Performance, not TR. Could that be my problem?? Sometimes, when I back out my car dies but I thought it was just the cam. I also don't have any headers yet so it's not really allowing my cam to breathe.

Yeah LT's will HELP A LOT. Should give you 25rwhp with the cam and all. Good luck!!

Long tubes and a non-mailorder tune will get things going.
