appreciate the help do you have a suggestion on one, or should i just shop around. I still want it to be very street friendly, seeing how the car is used on the street 95% of the time, just not satisfied with the pull I am currently getting with this setup.

Contact PatrickG and fill out the information sheet he has. Be very truthful with your answers. Pat will spec a cam just for you for $25.00. I had him do mine and had Geoff at EPS order it from Comp Cams. Very happy with the service I got.

Is it a Mustang dyno or a Dyno-Jet?
I got mine dyno tuned last week and my numbers were lower than I expected also. Mine was done on a mustang dyno.
I did a search on here about mustang dyno's and read alot of post...lol But it looks like they show numbers anywhere from 10% to 20% lower than dyno-jets.

If you dyno'd your car on a mustang dyno take that number and times it by .10 to .12 and that's about what your car should make on a dynojet dyno. That's from what I've been reading. I made 387rwhp on mustang dyno and I made 425rwhp on a dyno that he said reads a tad lower than a dynojet. But if I hook good at an 1/8 track I can run an 8 flat but I think it's alot of room for improvement on my launch at the track. So don't get caught up in dyno numbers.

I am thinking about buying those heads soon too, I made 350rwhp 360tq through the mods in my sig but at the time I had a stock throttle body and stock catback. Now I figure I'm at 370/370 now after a tune without heads through an automatic. I would have figured you would be around 410-420rwhp. Maybe the clutch is slipping like said earlier.

yea thats what left me puzzled as well, the car seems to run fine and only has 40k. I was expecting ~400 at the tires. Probly just end up putting a more aggressive cam(228r or xr281hr)
