Thank you for your continued support

 

For the simplicity of just getting the dyno done. Can I just block the TB port and vent the 2 Valve Covers to my catch can and leave the stock PCV things alone? Or will it hurt something to continue boost it like that?

 

Some people run like that all the time, so I'm sure as a temporary measure that you'd be alright.

 

What kind of Dyno?? That will impact my guess lol

Id say 490 on a mustang, 520 or so on a Dynojet.

 

You should peak at a little over 550 i would think.

 

Dynojet .. Just for a reference number .. BONE STOCK same dyno as sig. numbers.

 

So I got the plugs in the car this weekend, got the catch can mounted but I have a question about the PCV system, who doesnt right ..

I mounted the can behind the bumper to where the bumper support use to mount, is there any negative side effects of mounting here, too low or anything?

2nd what do you do with the PCV line? Right now I just have it plugged at the intake and the 2 valve covers running to the catch can. What should I do to keep some kind of pcv or is it needed?

 

One more thing came to mind today, I was going to "hot wire" the fuel pump, just using a amp kit and a relay. But when I checked the voltage at the pump it was reading batt. voltage so I just left it alone, Of course this was at idle but should I be fine or do the hot wire just in case?

 

One last bump on this for the questions and the poll before I head home for the weekend to see if it holds up. Hope to have numbers and or video (if it stays together) by next Wednesday or so (no internet at home =[ ) Wish me luck!

 

Well .. results are in .. Video should be up this afternoon (the shop recorded a better one than I have) and the Dyno chart will be posted tomorrow along with the actual tune log file from the dyno run.

We were not able to hook the boost controller up as the car was just making too much power on the spring .. 7.6 psi on the spring with 16.5 degrees of timing on 93 octane the car put down a very impressive 547HP 507ft/lb of torque corrected!

Now the guy that tuned it has never tuned with HP tuners before so there are a few idle issues and things I have to work out but the driviability is perfect and AFR through the curve doesn't get above 11.7

 

Glad to see you got it going! You gave me and idea on how i can run the down pipe, if i cant get it by the engine. Great info, nice car!!

 

I was pretty close. Good job.

 

 

Good to see! Were running similar setups so Im excited to see what mine will do.

 

Crappy Dyno vid, someone else with my camera the exhaust sounds terrible thought the digi cam but its not that bad in person, Ill post the better vid when the guy gets it up.

 

Man greate post, i going to start collecting the parts to start my installation.
I have a question,are you using the factory 5.7 motor with factory internals?
Thanks

 

Yes, stock factory bottom end, got right at 100k on the pistons and rods ... different heads, cam, springs and push rods though .. and head studs.

 

Bringing this thread back..
Great build! Man that video does stink, do you have the better one? Quick question though. In your sig it says 472/468 but on the thread it says you dynoed 547/507..?

 

I think that this was with his old sts setup.
