Default First dyno

Took my car to a local dyno day today for the first time. Wanted to see what it put down before doing too much to it. Untuned with longtubes through a 12 bolt netted me 290rwhp and 320rwtq on a Mustang MD-AWD-1100-SE. AFR was pretty lean at 13.7 across the graph, but as I said I hadn't tuned it yet. The torque curve looked pretty strong though, and I was pretty satisfied for now. I would post the graph if I had it, but I can't yet.

Now it's time to start making power.

get some 60lb injectors and a racetronix kit. you dont want to run at 13.7 AFR. You can cause some damage. Also look into a AEM AFR wideband. Dont go WOT till you get the AFR fixed.

Yeah, I realize I have some more work to do to it. Just getting started. Do you really think that 60lb injectors are necessary? I was looking at a set of 42lbs as I don't plan to do too much to the car yet.

i have 42lbs and wish i would have gotten 60lbs. 42 pounders are good for about 480-500rwhp. 60s you might never have to replace. if you plan on getting a cam your gonna want 60s
