Its because that's most of what you see posted on here I guess. I thought 400whp cam only was good. I guess he's the only one who doesn't think so.

Thanks man. I'm going to go back to a paper filter myself. Vengeance ain't making that **** up. They've tested it, they know what they're talking about. If nothing else it filters better.

your numbers are good considering you dont have an ud pulley...plus the torque is pretty impressive as well. Im sure that with a pulley, better exhaust, and more tuning you would be well over 400 hp

Yeah you're missing something...your brain.

Stock heads, stock intake, medium sized cam...397rwhp. How the hell is that low?

yeah numbers are good. But saying a filter that flows more makes less hp..haha

I've already stretched out my world's largest BS flag once today. Here it comes again...

"from sea to shining sea" I stretch out my flag.

I've seen someone swap out a lid on the dyno in 2 minutes and didn't pick up anything (actually lost hp). The car adjusts for the extra air and will have a net gain of hp.

Im not sure how a paper filter makes more if my K&N made the same numbers as no filter.

i guess im comparing mustang dyno numbers to dynojet dyno numbers. i searched and came up with. dynojets read any where from 5-12% higher.
i guess im wrong, sorry
yea i know numbers to mean any thing im all about "what do you trap in the 1/4" over what your e/t or hp/tq numbers are.

when a friend with a 9-10psi 02 mustang gt put down 470rwhp on a dynojet i thought that was high, and then he backed it up with 400rwhp on a mustang dyno.

if i can find a dynojet with in 40mi on my house and its not alot of $$ ill put my car on it.

Nice gains for sure.

If you dont mind me asking what was the total for everything? You do the install yourself? How is the MPG with the cam in?

Probably close to 2k with the tune and all the parts. And that's doing the install myself.

Nope. Put the cam in and turned it over by hand a couple times. Buttoned it up. I was looking at that thread about the PTV clearence and I still think I'm in good shape. I'm only advanced 2 degrees not 4 so I should have more clearence on the intake side which was the one he was worried about.

Yeah but I really took my time with it. I started late friday, stopped early on sat, and then finished it up about lunch time on sun. could have got it done in one day with a buddy though for sure. It was surprisingly easy to. There's no way I would take it to somebody to have them do it. Save yourself the money get a buddy and tear it down.
