Default Any guesses before we hit the dyno??

Thought we would see what everyone on the net predicts before we hit the dyno on the 2cd. It is a mustang dyno, and last year read 280rwhp/365tq with a stock LS1 (out of a 2002 WS6) and T56 through an 8.5inch rear. Only spun up to 5200rpm however, trans and rear were new.

Build:
Stock bottom end
LS6 intake/TB
Patriot Stage II 243's ported, 59cc, 2.055, 1.6
Vengeance VRX3, 226/228 .585/.588
LS2 Chain
LS7 lifters, LS2 cups
S&P mid length headers
Dual stainless 2.5 with X and balance tube (Magnaflow)



We are shooting for 400rwhp. This dyno is known for slightly lower numbers, but it is the one our baseline was run on, and would rather see the gains than the absolute numbers. Had the first tuning session on Monday, and the tuner was pretty happy with everything so far.

Any guesses, thoughts?

Wow, thanks for moving my post to such an obscure and hard to find spot, I'll drum up a lot of opinions here.

You thinking we will loose 23 ft-lb with a cam/head swap?

i dont know how mustang dyno's read but i do know they are low and your car on a dynojet would make sometyhing like 408hp and 387tq so i was going off of that.

Make sure its 4" piping with a pretty nice size filter on it.
