Keep in mind this is on our Mustang Chassis Dyno. Bob
Not bad at all. What is the typical difference between a Mustang Dyno and a Dynojet dyno as far as readings are concerned?

Nice kit too. Makes me wanna shop for a cheap C6......yeah right!! "Cheap" and "C6" don't belong in the same sentence.

Will this kit work on a C5??? I might be able to afford it then

Thanks Peter, we appreciate it! I took this car out yesterday afternoon, and ran it up to 140 mph in 4th gear, I shifted into 5th and got on it and the torque was just incredible! Of course this was on a closed course, I would never do this on a public highway... Bob

Our Mustang Chassis Dyno specs can be found here.

Basically a Mustang dyno will give you 40 to 50 rwhp less than a Dynojet, as it is not just a freewheeling weighted wheel.

APS has a kit for the C5, right here. http://www.airpowersystems.com/corvette/c5.htm Bob
