Re: mustang dyno questions. It's true
Have you run the car since you had it on the dyno, and do you have an accurate weight for the car? That's more representative of the actual power.
On a dynojet you can play many "tricks" to be part of the dyno queen crowd, but a mustang dyno actually MEASURES torque.

Re: mustang dyno questions. I meant what does you car actually weigh, and what MPH in the 1/4. That's what will correlate the dyno numbers.
I personally have watched a 380+ RWHP stage 2 HC 6 speed (on a mustang dyno)
Runs mid to low 11's at 118'ish.
If you want high dyno numbers use a dynojet, if you want _REAL_ numbers that will match your MPH use a _REAL_ dyno

Re: mustang dyno questions. I feel your pain. the first time i dyno'd was on a mustang and it showed 274 rwhp. later same car same mods ran 321 rwhp on a dynojet. Why do you think Harlan has "on a mustang dyno" in his sig imagine what he would be on a dynojet. Did you make a quarter mile pass on the dyno?

Re: mustang dyno questions. As I mentioned on another thread there was a writeup comparing both dynos (dynojet vs Mustang).
They had results from both dynos and actual track estimates of the power put down by the same car.
Just like Harlan said. If you want nice numbers use a dynojet if you want ACTUAL power use a mustang.
Oh and when they compared the Dynos vs actual track results the Mustang was almost dead on throughout the whole RPM band. Was offset by a few HP/TQ.
