Default 1992 Typhoon Dyno Pull

Here's a little project we're just finishing up. . . Early stages of tuning so the boost is low.

The typhoon has a lot of weight to it, and isn't exaclty areo dynamic, the resistance that the Mustang Dyno was applying is about double what you'd see on a Corvette. The engine wants a lot more boost, which will happen on Monday, that was just a little pull with the stock wastegate spring to see what it'd do.

It's a 4.3L Forged internal motor built by us, PTE 72mm turbo, carb style intake, air to air intercooler, twin intake pumps, 60lb/hr injectors, we'll be hitting it with 16lbs of boost later today.

They are AWD, we converted it to 2x4 for the dyno. It'll be AWD by the time it leaves.

With 17lbs of boost, we're at 400rwhp, and 592rwtq at 5000rpm right now. Breaking for lunch and we'll be doing more pulls.

We're only going to be using 16-17bs of boost. We feel that's a safe amount for a stock transfer case. Here's a new video.
